ghostsofevolution | Withdrawing Consent - Annette Klapstein and Emily Johnston on shutting down tar sands pipelines @ghostsofevolution | Uploaded May 2017 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Dec 2016 Emily Johnston and Annette Klapstein joined with the three other 'valve turners' in speaking to an enthusiastic audience in Seattle — just two months after the group had shut down all five pipelines carrying Canadian tar sands in the USA.

The two women worked together in shutting down two tar sands pipelines in a remote location in northern Minnesota. Here they speak about the underlying imperative.
