This weekโ€™s episode of DeSmogCAST covers the fallout of the U.S. midterm elections and what a GOP-led Congress will mean for climate action and the Keystone XLย pipeline.

Hosted by DeSmogBlog contributor Farron Cousins, our DeSmog cast โ€“ featuring Carol Linnitt, Brendan DeMelle and Steve Horn โ€“ also takes a look at fracking bans in several U.S. states, the hilarious success of the #KMFACE campaign, and the importance of community organizing in the face of growing fossil fuel influence in our lives.
