Greenhouse gas emissions from Alberta oilsands higher than some countries:report

September, 13, 2009 - 11:09 am Laforest, Mary Jo - (THE CANADIAN PRESS)

Alberta's oilsands produce more greenhouse gas emissions than some European countries right now and will produce more than all of the world's volcanoes in just 11 years if the pace of development continues, says a new report.

"Dirty - How the tar sands are fuelling global climate change" is set to be released Monday.

Greenpeace commissioned author Andrew Nikiforuk, a business and environmental reporter, to write the report.

"Nobody in Canada wants to talk about the scale issues," he said in an interview Saturday.
