A new film I saw recently reminded me of our predicament with respect to peak oil. Itâs called Stranded: I have come from a plane that crashed in the mountains. The film is based on the 1972 Andes flight disaster, where a team of Uruguayan rugby players crashed in the mountains on their way from Montevideo to Santiago, Chile.

Tar Sands Pollution and Cancer Downstream, Dr. Kevin Timoney Provides Environmental Health Insights
Aug. 29, 2009, 8:43 a.m.
In these early days of Peak oil unconventional energy source exploitation is becoming an ever larger part of the energy supply. Tar sands extraction activities began in Alberta, Canada in the 1960s and have expanded tremendously during recent years. The US now obtains more oil from tar sands than from any other foreign source. Tar sands extraction and upgrading in Alberta has poisoned the Athabasca River. Pollutant carcinogens including: arsenic, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), lead, cadmium and chromium are present at elevated and oftentimes health threatening levels in the water, the fish and the game. The people of Fort Chipewyan have suffered terribly as a result of this contamination of their homelands. Rare cancer is not rare in this community. The battle to stop tar sands is well underway here.

Your just graduating School, but everything that you had planned when you started, has suddenly changed.
You have learned too much, too much to stay in school.
Something must change, it is your future your looking at and things are getting pretty grey with pollution.
The big Oil Corps are running the world, and what they want is threatening your very future.
One thing you can do is get informed, and get active. Don't wait for someone else to "get it". You know full well what's going on - even if you don't see it on your main stream tv.
Your learning it from the grass roots. You get your first hand news by throwing yourself out there and experiencing it first hand.
That's what guest Marya Folinsbee did. She headed for the Tar Sands and biked her way back down Alberta in an attempt to wake up the world.
We need more people like this. Way to go Marya.
