POPSThe Biggest Global Warming Crime in History The oil rush is also scarring a wilderness landscape: millions of tonnes of plant life and top soil is scooped away in vast open-pit mines and millions of litres of water are diverted from rivers . The industry, which now includes all the major oil multinationals, boasts that it takes two tonnes of the raw sands to produce a single barrel of oil. It takes about 29kg of CO2 to produce a barrel of oil conventionally. That figure can be as much 125kg for tar sands oil. It also has the potential to kill off or damage the vast forest wilderness. Licenses have been issued by the Albertan government to extract 350 million cubic metres of water from the Athabasca River every year. But the water used in the extraction process is so contaminated that it cannot be returned to the eco-system and must instead be stored in vast "tailings ponds" and there is evidence of increased rates of cancer and multiple sclerosis in down-river communities.
