Worst choices ever <| sep |> Yeah but he also doesn ' t have the supporting cast that he had on the panthers <| sep |> Old pipelines leak more than ones with newer designs . Trains explode morenot ideal with Bakken crude , ask Lac Megantic . It ' s not wise to rely on either of those when we can build newer safer pipelines . Not to mention pipelines are not wells or supertankers . Even the worst spills don ' t drastically threaten entire regions because they literally can ' t carry that much oil to make much difference and are easy to shut off . And the ultimate alternative to just halting oil infrastructure development is far more spills and eventual famine and widespread starvation as old lines fail and we lose access to cheap fuel we need to function as a society . Brilliant .
