On this edition of Your Call's One Planet Series, we're getting the latest on the protests against Enbridge's Line 3 Pipeline, which would carry tar sands from Alberta, Canada to a port in Superior, Wisconsin. Native activists and their allies say the pipeline threatens pristine wetlands, violates tribal sovereignty, and worsens climate change.
