CA Controller and NYC Comptroller Stand Firm Against Pebble Mine, Again Urge Rio Tinto to Divest to Protect Major Pension Fund Investors*|&nbspTaryn Kiekow
EPA's Bristol Bay Watershed Assessment found that Pebble Mine would have "devastating" effects on the Bristol Bay ecosystem. Based on those findings, the CA Controller and NYC Comptroller - representing large public pension funds valued at almost $500 billion - emphasized that the "reputational risks that Rio Tinto faces as a result of its association with the Pebble Project may well exceed the equity value of its investment in that project."

this *cough* "brilliant" idea is on par w/ the tarsands powderkeg :rolleyes:
 
so this Obama EPA want's to kill MORE JOBS for the people in this country

how special are they? but they ONLY CARE about YOU
 
having the epa shut down the tar sands, would be a terrible idea.

Since they are in Canada

Seeing that the methane emissions are many times above normal near the tar-sands. Might be a good idea for the Canadian government to do.

wouldn't removing what was causing the emmisions (oil) reduce the amount of methane?
 
Things like the below can't happen w/ for-profit corps, not abiding by EPA & OSHA rules, despoiling this great nation's bispheres:
