When: 07:00 PM November 4, 2009 to 07:00 PM November 20, 2009
(from official website : http://wwf.ca/takeaction/events/oil_and_ice_tour.cfm)
Join two of Canada's leading authors for a discussion about the choices that will determine the future of Canada's Arctic, and what we can learn from the tar sands.
WWF-Canada is proud to host the cross-Canada speaking tour of award-winning authors Andrew Nikiforuk (Tar Sands) and Ed Struzik (The Big Thaw). Join them this fall as they discuss how the melting of Arctic sea ice and the exploitation of the Alberta tar sands are connected, and how they are shaping Canada's future. WWF aims to stimulate debate among Canadians about the choices and consequences – political, cultural, economic and environmental – involved in how we develop the tar sands and respond to a changing Arctic.
Join us in a city near you between November 4-20, 2009. See below for more information about dates and locations.
