Two out of five proposed new tar sands pipelines have now been canceled in the face of legal challenges, widespread public opposition and changing economics. After mass protests, Kinder Morgan halted work on the Trans Mountain Pipeline Expansion, and a month later dropped the project with a bailout from the Canadian government. Banks around the world have scaled back financing for tar sands projects, including BNP Paribas and HSBC, Europe\\u2019s two biggest banks.&quot;,&quot;cta_text&quot;:&quot;READ MORE&quot;,&quot;cta_link&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.greenpeace.org\\\/aotearoa\\\/story\\\/5-ways-people-are-standing-up-to-oil-pipeline-companies\\\/&quot;,&quot;link_new_tab&quot;:false},{&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Oil companies are trying to shut us up and shut us down&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Pipeline companies like Energy Transfer Partners, the company behind the Dakota Access Pipeline, are taking extreme measures to stop people from protecting their land, water and Indigenous rights.
