Environmentalists are making headway in preventing America from becoming even more dependant on foreign energy.
The Sierra Club and the Natural Resources Defense Council, two groups fighting to prevent the expansion of oil drilling and coal burning, succeeded in blocking ConocoPhillips from expanding a oil processing plant. The plant, located in Roxana, IL, has been used by the oil conglomerate to process Canadian oil for use by Americans. By stopping the deal, greenies have avoided ConocoPhilllips from sending even more of the money we pay for our energy to the Canadian government.
