WASHINGTON, DC, January 31, 2014 (ENS) - In its final environmental review of TransCanada's proposed Keystone XL pipeline, the U.S. State Department today acknowledges for the first time that the pipeline could "significantly impact" climate change.
.
Unlike its previous reviews of the pipeline, the State Department's new Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement does not claim that the environmental impacts of the pipeline would be minimal.
.
Instead, the State Department FEIS says, "The total direct and indirect emissions associated with the proposed Project would contribute to cumulative global GHG [greenhouse gas] emissions."
