Toxic Alberta

In light of the recent duck fiasco, I figured it was worth linking to Toxic Alberta, a 15-part series about the Athabasca Oil Sands produced by VBS.TV. The series is obviously biased and not always 100% correct (Fort McMurray isn’t even close to the Canadian Tundra), but it’s still worth a watch.

This reminded me of Al Gore’s most recent talk on TED.com - basically a summarized update of stuff from the release of ‘An Inconvenient Truth’

the most memorable part for me is where he likened investing in Oil Sands and other similar oil industry technologies to heroin addicts trying veins in their legs because their arms are all used up.
