Climate Central: TransCanada is suing the U.S. government for more than $15 billion in losses and damages for denying the Canadian company's permit to build the Keystone XL Pipeline.
The U.S. State Department denied the permit in November, saying that the proposed $8 billion pipeline would undermine U.S. global leadership on climate change. Keystone XL would have transported more than 800,000 barrels of crude oil each day from the Canadian tar sands in Alberta to oil refineries in Texas.
