TOURING EXHIBIT: The True Cost of Oil: Boreal Forest, Coast Mountains and Atlin Lake.

This area, located in the extreme northwest of British Columbia, marks the western boundary of the Boreal region. On the border of the Yukon and Southeast Alaska, the western flank of these mountains descends into Alaska's Tongass Rainforest and British Columbia's Great Bear Rainforest. Far from the Tar Sands, plans to build a 750-mile pipeline to pump 550,000 barrels per day of Tar Sands crude to the coast would result in tanker traffic through some of the world's most treacherous waters.
