    As a over the road trucker, thanks for seeing and conveying the need for natural resources we ALL rely on to run our society.

    People don't realize that shutting the pipeline actually harms Native Americans by raising prices on their fundamental necesities like food and fuel.

    I dont think any takes the time to think, how many products that we use are made out of plastic. Plastic is made of oil.

    I live in Georgia. We were in Vancouver about to go to Vancouver Island on a halibut fishing trip on 9-11-01. All hell broke loose that morning and we scrambled to that border crossing you crossed on this video headed back to lower 48. It was shut down. We sat there one day and finally got across. No flights home. We ended up taking the Alamo rental S10 Blazer all the way to Ga nonstop. 3 of us swapped out driving. It was a eery drive under those circumstances. 40 hour drive straight thru. We had a 2200 dollar drop charge on the rental in Atlanta for not returning it to Seattle. Oh well, we made it home. :)

    They should heat the water in their tank which submerges the entire tire and wheel -- shouldn't take more than 5 minutes to warm up enough for the tires to be flexible. :)

    Seattle actually gets almost all of our electricity from renewables, mostly hydro! There is some limited carbon inputs but iirc about 90% of electricity is renewable. Urban density is also far better for nature, since every home in the city is a home not built on clear cut land in the suburbs, and urban residents have opportunities to live with a much lower carbon footprint. It’s possible to imagine a future where the pipelines aren’t necessary.

    • @TruckHouseLife
      @TruckHouseLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yup Seattle isn't as bad, but most cities & products come from plastics (oil). Hopefully we can slowly move to more renewable energy, but I don't think it's ever completely going away for at least products.

    In my career, I have crossed into Canada hundreds of times. I’ve crossed that very border crossing and had a miserable time. I had all the proper paperwork to do some equipment installations in Vancouver and still the US border agent was a complete jerk actually when I was returning to catch a flight home. Going into Canada was event free, but coming back the guy was just completely rude, got mad for some reason that I said I was going home when he asked where I was heading, even though he had my license too. I had to bite my tongue the whole encounter, it was like he was actually trying on purpose to get me to lose my cool. Shameful and hopefully he is no longer employed!
