"Take a look at what used to be pristine forests in Canada"

Wednesday, July 09, 2008


A video report on CNN Ali Velshi puts sobering images to the "black gold...actually squeezed from the sand" in Alberta, Canada.

Renewable energy enthusiast and author Marc Franke comments:

If you’ve been worried that farming corn is “hard on the land”, take a look at what used to be pristine forests in Canada.

Canada has now surpassed Saudi Arabia as the single largest supplier of oil to the U.S.

Oil sands contribute three times the green house gases during extraction compared to normal crude oil.

Folks, we need to get off of petroleum. We are destroying our environment to get it.
