Why is the U.S. government embracing destructive energy sources?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about U.S. energy policies. The Canadian oil and gas company Trans Canada plans to build a $13 billion pipeline that would carry polluting tar sands from Canada to oil refineries in Texas. And the U.S. government is planning 10,000 fracking wells over the next two years. Who's making these decisions? How would you grade the administration's energy policies? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar, and you.

Guests:
Kassie Siegel, as director of the Climate, Air, and Energy Program at the Center for Biological Diversity

Joe Romm, a Senior Fellow at American Progress and the editor of Climate Progress

Brant Olson, a strategist on national corporate campaigns in the retail, finance, energy and forest sectors with the Rainforest Action Network Blog.
