@thenarwhal went to Mordor, #Canada, and came back with photos of #Alberta’s #oilsands

"It’s the largest bitumen deposit in the world. Mining there is visible from space. And for many Canadians, the #oilsands are still completely unseen.

1,097 square kilometres mined, 0.1 per cent certified reclaimed."

MaybeMyMonkeys,

@CelloMomOnCars @thenarwhal bet that industry has set aside $0 for clean up. Taxpayers will be on the hook when O&G becomes obsolete.

david_megginson,

@MaybeMyMonkeys @CelloMomOnCars @thenarwhal I hate how the oil industry's rebranding exercise circa the late 1980s to rename them "oil sands" paid off. In the 1970s, even the oil industry called them the "Alberta Tar Sands"; if we care about specificity, then they we can call them "bitumen deposits".

Either way, "oil sands" is pure industry propaganda.

I like "bitumen oil".
It sounds like snot. (And of course, in a way, it is).
