If you mean the Cd inside thin film CdTe solar cells just think about how much heavy metals are actually inside crude oil/ coal/ tar sands and then think again. Especially about the humongous amounts of fossil fuels extracted as compared to some thin film solar cells produced. And there one can take easily care of the Cd waste...

However, if we killer apes are to survive -- and quite possibly it is too late to make a correction -- as a species, we have to get away from our fossil fuel addiction. Your footprint references do not recognize that it is the user of the petroleum product -- wherever they are -- that is creating the largest footprint. I know from 25 years of experience that it is possible to live without owning a vehicle. We just need to use our imagination in the transition away from fossil fuels.Critical Societyhttp://criticalsociety.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-77842632331725458902017-03-28T13:55:44.011-03:002017-03-28T13:55:44.011-03:00The rate is not as important as the absolute numbe...The rate is not as important as the absolute numbers of births per day.

Although I wouldn't expect any less. Yes, compared to a 2 lane highway it looks big. What also looks big is the vast amounts of forest everywhere. I worked on CNRL Horizon and stayed off site. It was a 30 minute drive in and there was tons of trees and open field. Also even on site the air quality seemed pretty good if you ask me. It's what you should expect from a modern plant. Flying in there is nothing but trees with patches of these sites mixed in. It is literally in the middle of nowhere. Oh and keep in mind the footprint and pollution of a major city like Toronto is probably more than all of these sites combined. Keep in mind Kearl, Horizon, Syncrude, Suncor sites are open pit mines and the worst case scenario. In-site barely even has a footprint. And I have also seen reclaimed areas. You would never have known anyone was there. Not a big fan of people constantly attacking an industry that supports many Canadian families and actually spend billions on some of these projects just to meet ever increasing environmental regulations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-7940823956364516182016-05-05T09:38:47.726-03:002016-05-05T09:38:47.726-03:00just stop breeding like roaches and the world will...just stop breeding like roaches and the world will be fine, regardless of individual choices.<br /><br />seems everyone forgot the lessons of the 60s and 70s.captainhurthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17929305675502034087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-52422821700331701612015-11-03T11:29:33.155-04:002015-11-03T11:29:33.155-04:00OPEC applauds this websites brave efforts!

We are on a treadmill to detroy the earth to find that last barrel of oil, or last barrel of profitable oil.<br /><br />Reclamation, however small, is a happy event bankrolled by profitable industry in a growth cycle. As soon as conditions change, there won't be any money for reclamation. <br />I am curious about this "polymer" they inject into the tailings with a huge pipeline. It ends up in the 'soil' or in the water, either way it doesn't sound healthy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-30702030668540217102014-03-14T09:12:18.143-03:002014-03-14T09:12:18.143-03:00Sadly many people do not care or have very little ...Sadly many people do not care or have very little respect for our planet.
