Some of the most abundant oil fields on earth may be closer than you think. The oil sands of Alberta, Canada, can produce up to a million barrels a day and hold reserves eight times those of Saudi Arabia. But critics charge that the process of extracting the oil destroys both the land and the atmosphere. Bob Simon investigates.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

Canadian Oil Sands Facts in 15 minutes January 14, 2007
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
If you want to learn some quick facts in DVD format about the Alberta Oil Sands from a reputable source than this short DVD is for you. The 60 minutes crew explores Fort McMurry in Northern Alberta and interviews Sunor workers and the amazing 'toys' that they use to extract oil from the tar sands.The facts are staggering and the production is already exceeding 1 million barrels of production a day, which is planned to triple in the coming years. This short video is interspersed with interviews from Oil Giants including Clive Mather, CEO of Shell Canada. I am the director of a real estate investment company that invests directly into the Edmonton, Alberta oil sands areas. Therefore I specifically research economic fundamentals such as energy, IT, nano-tech, etc.. and I found this DVD to be useful in presenting Oil Sands facts in a video-medium. Thank you.
