The Story Of The Alberta Oil Sands
advertisement
VOICE OVER: Rebecca Brayton
Canada is home to a large quantity of oil sands, otherwise known as tar sands. It is only recently that these particular oil reserves became available to the world, because of the intense effort and energy expenditure required to mine it. Enormous amounts of water are also required to mine the tar sands, and so fresh water reserves in the area are dwindling. Filmmaker Shannon Walsh puts a human face to the problem of the Alberta tar sands in her documentary, 'H2Oil.' In this video, http://www.WatchMojo.com speaks with Walsh about the tar sands, and their effect on the environment. For more information, click Here
