1. Shell No! Tar sands oil has got to go.
May 5, 2012, 11 am: peaceful protest & rally at the Shell Refinery in Anacortes as
part of 350.org’s Day of Climate Action, with speakers from the Swinomish Indian
Tribal Community, People for Puget Sound, and Forest Ethics
Connecting the dots: Tar sands oil in Washington State – Already, about 6% of the oil
refined and used in WA State is from the Canadian tar sands, which is a lot more toxic and
destructive. We’re demanding a Tar Sands Free Washington State
Higher risk to the Puget Sound region There are plans to bring more tar sands oil to
WA State via pipeline and oil tankers endangering our land, air, and water.
Expanding tar sands exploitation– Shell is one of the main players in the Alberta tar
sands operation and is planning to substantially expand its production capacity.
This is an outline of an extreme energy future devastating to our ecosystems and
climate. Join us now to stand up to big oil and show your support for immediate
action on climate issues.
