Re: TAR SANDS
An article about Tar Sands funding and investment- Canada's big banks are complicit in the exploding unchecked growth. Unlike most articles of this nature, this one has a positive message.

Re: TAR SANDS
Maude Barlow is one of Canada's lmost prominent activists across many fronts. In this article, she makes reference to Tolkein's Lord of the Rings when she refers to Alberta's Tar Sands as 'Mordor':
“What else can you call a project that leaks 11 million litres of toxic waste a day into rivers and groundwater?”
