If you haven't had the chance to see the new Showtime documentary series on climate change called "Years of Living Dangerously" I highly recommend calling your local cable provider and ordering the movie channel because this is one of the most important television events in history.

'Reject and Protect' March and Rally to Stop Keystone XL Pipeline
I was at the "Reject and Protect" march and rally last Saturday, April 26th in Washington, D.C. to stop the Keystone XL Pipeline. While I missed Neil Young, who spoke in the morning, I did get some photos and video of the march after they delivered a hand-painted tipi to President Obama at the American Indian Museum and then rallied on The National Mall where indigenous leaders from First Nations communities in Nebraska and Alberta along the pipeline route spoke and said prayers and then an indigenous rapper performed.
