Environmental groups and climate change activists vowed to block every inch of the Keystone XL oil pipeline’s construction after President Trump approved the project Friday.

Groups such as anti-fossil fuel advocates 350.org said they also plan to take their fight to local congressional districts during Congress’ April recess and prod lawmakers to publicly renounce support for the pipeline.
