Talk | Inside the Tar Sands: The Human and Ecological Costs of Canada's Catastrophic Search for Oil

Friday, April 24, 2015, 3:00 pm

Free

Please join an afternoon with Indigenous activist Eriel Deranger and renowned environmental photojournalist Garth Lenz as they discuss the human and environmental effects of the largest industrial development project on our planet. Deranger reveals how the tar sands have impacted the people, culture, and land of the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation, a community situated on Lake Athabasca about 150 miles downstream of the Alberta Oil Sands project, and underscores the central role of Indigenous resistance to ongoing state extraction in the climate justice movement as a whole. Complimenting Deranger’s exposé through his haunting photo project, The True Cost of Oil, Lenz offers a stark visual representation of the ecological nightmare currently unfolding in Alberta as a result of our insatiable thirst for oil.
