Posted: Updated:

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - A local demonstration is planned Wednesday to voice opposition to the Keystone Oil Pipeline.

Those opposing the project say they're concerned over the environmental impact it could create. A spokesperson for the local rally says they those chose to protest outside the American Petroleum Industries Conference in Coronado, because they claim API is giving misleading climate information. However, the organization denies that claim.

Wednesday's rally takes place from 11:45 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the intersection of Silver Strand and Coronado bay Road.
