The many challenges that the XL oil pipeline faces in the U.S. - largely due to a incredibly well-funded environmental movement - should be watched very closely by the mining sector. Although the original pipeline route - over an environmentally sensitive water acquifier in a state largly dependent on agriculture was - was just plain wrong.

When will big resource industries smarten up? However, the ultimate green goal is to stop or significantly slow down oilsand development.

The mining sector - especially Cliff's enormously big chromite proposal - better ensure their projects are environmentally sustainable. The environmental movement has become too powerfull and media savvy. Give them as few targets as possible and ensure Aboriginal participation and benefits.
