A memorial to workers who have died in work related accidents, in a park in Fort McMurray. Fort McMurray is the centre of the Athabasca tar sands, the world's third largest oil reserves, and the most environmentally damaging project on the planet. The tar sands have around three times the carbon footprint of conventional oil supplies, are responsible for the second largest rate of deforestation on the planet and are hugely toxic and polluting of the environment, as well as a disaster from a climate change perspective.
