| Abstract | [...]these impacts are considered so significant that some people are calling for the development of bitumen deposits to be slowed down until we are more certain of the environmental effects. Rather you are researching the overall effects that tar sands development can have on the environment. Since you are providing information for a Supreme Court hearing you are as concerned with what is happening to the environment as you are with what could happen if development is not controlled. |
