Hello!
Snake oil for the 21st century!!
Wednesday Oct. 1 - Grand
Junction, CO 7 pm, Mesa State College,
Wubben Hall
Be part of this big multi-state event as
we host important discussions with Randy Udall and Garth Lenz
right here in Grand Junction and the surrounding areas!!
The Tar Sands/Oil Shale Road Show across
Utah and Colorado will present public education events over one
week in five cities: Salt Lake City, Moab, Grand
Junction, Glenwood Springs, and Boulder.
Presentations by conservation photographer Garth Lenz and energy
analyst Randy Udall will provide images and stories
about tar sands production in Canada, which has
destroyed huge swaths of the boreal forest while contributing to
global warming and toxic
contamination, and current industry plans to create a
similar industry in western Colorado, eastern Utah and southwest
Wyoming. Since Canadian tar sands are already refined in
Colorado and sold in our gas stations, we already have an
immediate connection to this industry. The Bush
administration is trying to expedite regulations for this
industry in the U.S., even though the technology and its impacts
are not yet known. Legislation currently pending in
Washington can restore sensible policy that will wait until
research is completed before finalizing any regulations.
