[] This video talks about how many barrels of oil can be collected a day from the oil sands. Right now only 1 million barrels can be collected a day but in 2018 with more advanced technology 3million barrels a day can be collected.More that 170billion barrels of oil can be taken from the oil sands.

[] About 40 kilometres north of Fort McMurray -- is scrambling to contain the damage, he said. The tailings ponds are formed during the oilsands extraction process

 [] Two tonnes of Tar Sand produces a single barrel of oil. Tar Sands generate 40 million tonnes of CO2 per year, more than every car in canada combined. To reach the bitumen the Boreal Forest is destroyed which is not a good thing in my opinion.  LINK: wolframalpha Number of people in Alberta that benefits from the oil sands: 3.29 million people ( 10% of Canada)

[] Haul truck capacities range from 50 short tons to 400 short tons.

Team 3 Leah [] The jobs up in Fort MCMurray are very rewarding and can pay up to 120 thousand dollars a year by the time they are only twenty two years old

[] Massive boreal forest is the size of New York, which has been un-disturbed for 10,000 years until now. The worlds largest feats of engineering covering over 100,000 hectares of wilderness, costing over 10 billion dollars now stands in the place of a once majestic forest.The workers overcome one of the harshest climates in the world. Underneath the forest lies a treasure valued over 80 trillion dollars, the black gold.

[] One dollar in the oil sands creates 8 dollars of economic stimulus. Royalties From the Oil Sands: 1.9 billion in 2009-10 this funds public programs and services. Alberta can expect 184 billion in royalties over the next 25 years. CERI predicts that the oil sands will creat over 307 billion dollars in tax revenue over the next 25 years. About 67% or 187 billion dollars towards the Canadian federal government. New Brunswick steel manufacturers have signed contracts worth an estimaed $50 million.

Team 3 ﻿Madison

[] So many people are dying because of the addiction others have to oil. There is less clean drinking water and people as young as 17 are getting cancer

Team 3 ﻿Jordan [] This video is about the toxic oil ponds that the oil companies are leaving behind. Five Hundred ducks were seriously injured and some dead when landing on one of the these ponds; the ones that did survive may not recover from these effects.

~Team 2: Every dollar invested in oil sands creates about 8 dollars worth of economic activity with one third of that economic value generated outside Alberta. Alberta's revenue will be $184 billion over the next 25 years
 * Alberta, Canada** - 661,848 km2 -- Oil sands in Alberta = 142,000 km2 divided the size of Alberta = Roughly 21.5% of Alberta is all oil sands.
