| Abstract | The article discusses the issue of tailings ponds which are a toxic byproduct of tar sands processing for the oil industry in Alberta, Canada. Topics include how the tailings ponds contaminate the Athabasca River, the Mackenzie river, and the Arctic Ocean, how the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation (ACFN) is working to stop pollution, and how native tribes, rather than federal environmental protections, are working to protect water sources. INSET: FIRST NATIONS. |
