Alberta’s tar sands are at the centre of many tensions. As the province rushes towards a large-scale extraction, the social, ecological and human impacts are hitting a crisis point. The controversial billion-dollar Athabasca oil sands industry is extracting crude from the land by using up to 4 barrels of glacier-fed fresh water to produce only one barrel of crude oil. “H2Oil” follows a voyage of discovery, heartbreak and activism in the stories of those attempting to defend water in Alberta against tar sands expansion. It’s the story of one of the most significant, and destructive projects of our time.
