Standing Rock and Beyond: Pipelines and Mines Spill and Kill

Less than 200 miles away from Standing Rock, another pipeline has broken and is dumping oil into someone's water (my bold in quote below)

A leak from a six-inch pipeline prompted the shutdown. The 783-mile pipeline transports crude oil in the Williston Basin of western North Dakota and eastern Montana, according to the company website.
It is not the first time the Bell Fourche Pipeline has had a spill.
According to records from US Department of Transportation, the company has had 10 reported spills over the past five years. Those spills accounted for the loss of nearly 5,000 barrels of oil and caused $2.26 million in property damage.

Cleaning up Oil Spills with Electromagnetism

Hi,

Taking a break from my HDS (Hillary Derangement Syndrome--where I search the web relentlessly to find negative articles on HRC to justify my feelings about her) I came across this incredibly important advancement in cleaning up one of the giant messes that the FFI (Fossil Fuel Industry) like to make, quite regularly.

This video highlights, in my mind, why it's important to fund "basic scientific research."
