Stop The Alberta Tar Sands

Target:
global warming
Sponsored by: 
In the province of Alberta a chunk of land the size of Florida is being riped apart by Oil Companies from across the world for oil. The land being riped up is the Boreal Forest, the lungs of Canada. Two Indian tribes who live downstream from the Tar Sands or Oil Sands are now dying rapidly of Cancer. The water they depend on is no longer drinkable, the fish is no longer fishable and the wildlife is no longer huntable. Wildlife has been disappearing at alarming rates including a flock of 500 ducks who landed in the Toxic Tar Ponds. Please sign to stop this devasting destruction and show you care!

This is 2009. There are cleaner, greener solutions to fossil fuel - especially FILTHY fossil fuels that the tar sands produce. WE MUST STAND UP TO CORPORATE GREED NOW OR ONLY THE WEALTHY WILL SURVIVE!
