Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Arrested: Activist Defends Keystone Pipeline Protest At White House (VIDEO)

From Huff Post Green

A day after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was arrested during a climate change rally outside the White House, the environmental activist joined HuffPost Live to defend his protest against the Keystone XL pipeline.





Kennedy, who is president of the Waterkeeper Alliance and a senior attorney for the National Resources Defense Council, told HuffPost Live's Jacob Soboroff that he and other opponents believe the project is "the worst project that we've seen come along in our lifetime."

"The oil industry last year had pure profits of $100 billion," Kennedy said. "They are the richest private entities of mankind. We've never seen anything like this and they're exercising political power."
