Climate Home: Leading Democrat senators say a Republican-led drive to thwart President Obamas centrepiece climate policy is mainly symbolic and a stunt to erode the administration`s leadership before the Paris climate talks.

Mother Jones: Friday morning, after years of heated battles between environmentalists and Republicans, President Barack Obama announced that he is rejecting the Keystone XL pipeline. In a speech, the president criticized both supporters and detractors of the pipeline from placing too much emphasis on a project that, according to the State Department's analysis, would neither create many jobs nor ruin the climate if approved.
