State Department's Environmental Report Lends Support To Keystone XL Approval

State Department's Environmental Report Lends Support To Keystone XL Approval: 



The State Department released a new environmental analysis of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline on Friday that increases the likelihood that the Obama administration will approve the project. 



The report, which is the final version of the department's environmental impact statement, found that the pipeline will not significantly increase greenhouse gas emissions -- the biggest issue for the environmental groups that want to see the pipeline rejected.
