Canadian Activists Urge Obama to Reject Environmentally Destructive Oil Extraction from Alberta's Tar Sands
President Barack Obama is heading to Canada today for his first foreign trip as president.

Greenpeace says the tar sands generate three to five times as much greenhouse gas pollution as the production of conventional oil. Ref. Source 8

I know many items have been looked at to clean up this mess but till real financial pressure is put on them I do not foresee any changes. I hope Obama does take a firm stand on this.
