Paperback. Condition: New. Brand New, trade paperback binding. The fight over the tar sands in North America is among the epic environmental and social justice battles of our time, and one of the first that has managed to quite explicitly marry concern for frontline communities and immediate local hazards with fear for the futur…e of the entire planet.Tar sands ?development? comes with an enormous environmental and human cost. But tar sands opponents?fighting a powerful international industry?are likened to terrorists, government environmental scientists are muzzled, and public hearings are concealed and rushed.Yet, despite the formidable political and economic power behind the tar sands, many opponents are actively building international networks of resistance, challenging pipeline plans while resisting threats to Indigenous sovereignty and democratic participation. Including leading voices involved in the struggle against the tar sands, A Line in the Tar Sands offers a critical analysis of the impact of the tar sands and the challenges opponents face in their efforts to organize effective resistance.Contributors include: Angela Carter, Bill McKibben, Brian Tokar, Christine Leclerc, Clayton Thomas-Muller, Crystal Lameman, Dave Vasey, Emily Coats, Eriel Deranger, Greg Albo, Jeremy Brecher, Jess Worth, Jesse Cardinal, Joshua Kahn Russell, Lilian Yap, Linda Capato, Macdonald Stainsby, Martin Lukacs, Matt Leonard, Melina Laboucan-Massimo, Naomi Klein, Rae Breaux, Randolph Haluza-DeLay, Rex Weyler, Ryan Katz-Rosene, S?kihitowin Aw?sis, Sonia Grant, Stephen D?Arcy, Toban Black, Tony Weis, Tyler McCreary, Winona LaDuke, and Yves Engler.The editors? proceeds from this book will be donated to frontline grassroots environmental justice groups and campaigns.
