DoomsdaysCW<p>Keystone, 'Safest Pipeline in the World,' Ruptures—Again</p><p>President Donald Trump wants to revive Keystone XL, a highly controversial extension of the tar sands pipeline system, despite three massive leaks over the past eight years.</p><p>Brett Wilkins<br>Apr 08, 2025</p><p>"This is a developing story...

Measures to prevent the discharge of contaminated water into the ocean include A) Groundwater leakage prevention by a steel water barrier on the sea-side and B) Pumping up of groundwater dammed up behind the sea-side water barrier from the well points and groundwater drains. Due to these measures, the volume of contaminated water discharged, 540m3/day in May 2014, fell to 80m3/day in FY2023, and was below 100m3/day in FY2024.</p><p>"In the reduction of the toxicity of contaminated water, cesium and strontium are removed, and after the removal of impurities using a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane, the multi-radionuclide removal equipment (ALPS – Advanced Liquid Processing System) then removes 62 radionuclides [NOT COMPLETELY!!!]. The water is then stored in tanks (containing 1,297,190m3 as of January 30, 2025. However, due to past equipment <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/malfunctions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>malfunctions</span></a> and operational policies, around 64% of the stored water exceeds the notification concentration). </p><p>"Oceanic release of the ALPS-treated contaminated water began on August 24, 2023, a total of 78,285m3 being released in ten batches by January 2025.

A single <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DataCenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DataCenter</span></a> can consume the equivalent electricity of 50,000 homes. At 200 terawatt hours (TWh) annually, data centers collectively devour more energy than some nation-states. Today, the electricity utilized by data centers accounts for 0.3 percent of overall <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CarbonEmissions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarbonEmissions</span></a>, and if we extend our accounting to include networked devices like laptops, smartphones, and tablets, the total shifts to 2 percent of global carbon emissions.</p><p>"Why so much energy? Beyond cooling, the energy requirements of data centers are vast. To meet the pledge to customers that their data and cloud services will be available anytime, anywhere, data centers are designed to be hyper-redundant: If one system fails, another is ready to take its place at a moment’s notice, to prevent a disruption in user experiences. Like Tom’s air conditioners idling in a low-power state, ready to rev up when things get too hot, the data center is a Russian doll of redundancies: redundant power systems like diesel generators, redundant servers ready to take over computational processes should others become unexpectedly unavailable, and so forth. In some cases, only 6 to 12 percent of energy consumed is devoted to active computational processes. The remainder is allocated to cooling and maintaining chains upon chains of redundant fail-safes to prevent costly downtime."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://getpocket.com/explore/item/the-staggering-ecological-impacts-of-computation-and-the-cloud?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">getpocket.com/explore/item/the</span><span class="invisible">-staggering-ecological-impacts-of-computation-and-the-cloud?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukesForAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukesForAI</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RethinkNotRestart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RethinkNotRestart</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukesForDatacenters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukesForDatacenters</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LMs</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Datacenters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Datacenters</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterIsLife</span></a></p>

The problems included a jury that was patently biased in favor of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnergyTransfer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EnergyTransfer</span></a>, with many members working in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FossilFuel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FossilFuel</span></a> industry; a judge who lacked the requisite experience and legal knowledge to rule properly on the complex <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FirstAmendment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FirstAmendment</span></a> and other evidentiary issues at the center of the case; and incendiary and prejudicial statements by lawyers for Energy Transfer that tried to criminalize Greenpeace and by extension the entire <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateMovement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateMovement</span></a> by attacking constitutionally-protected advocacy. </p><p>"Our fear that this was an illegitimate <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/corporate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>corporate</span></a>-funded <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SLAPP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SLAPP</span></a> harassment case was confirmed by our observations. </p><p>"We will be issuing a full report documenting these violations and larger flaws in the case in the coming weeks. </p><p>"While the trial court verdict is in, the case is far from over. Greenpeace has a right to appeal to the North Dakota Supreme Court and ultimately to the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USSupremeCourt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USSupremeCourt</span></a>. Our committee will continue its work monitoring this critically important case that raises troubling concerns for all advocates in the country."</p><p>— <a

The Texas-based pipeline company accused Greenpeace of orchestrating criminal behavior by training and providing funds to the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Indigenous</span></a>-led protests at <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/StandingRock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StandingRock</span></a>.

Donziger said most of the jurors in the case were connected to the industry and were 'predisposed' to rule in favor of Energy Transfer despite the 'false narratives' presented at the trial.
