Ogallala

Recently there has been a lot in the news about the Keystone Pipeline. In my opinion this pipeline is wrong. It wont help the economy as much as the oil companies say it will. It wont lower gas prices, like the oil companies say it will. And it wont be as safe as the oil company says it will be.
I think the biggest problem with the Keystone Pipeline is that it runs over one of the biggest aquafirs in the world. The Ogallala Aquifer covers most of the central plains of North America, and provides water to something like 30% of the United States. Imagine if a spill were to happen over some of this very sensitive habitat. I wont even touch where the oil is coming from in this post. I will just ask the simple question:

what is sacred?
