SUMMARY:Tar Sands Action: A Report Back
DESCRIPTION:Have you heard about the Tar Sands protests at the White H
 ouse? Over the past few weeks thousands of people have protested a pro
 posed pipeline which would connect Canada’s “Tar Sands” with the
  Gulf of Mexico. Jamaica Plain residents took part in the protests, an
 d several were among the 1,200+ people who were arrested for civil dis
 obedience. Come to the JP Forum to see a slideshow and hear their firs
 t-hand report about the protest.At the Forum, a panel will discuss why
  President Obama should reject a permit for a proposed pipeline linkin
 g the Tar Sands of Alberta to the oil refineries in Texas. Chief clima
 te scientist at NASA, Dr. James Hansen has said that major exploitatio
 n of the Tar Sands would mean “game over” for the climate.We will 
 also address the tactic of civil disobedience within the climate justi
 ce movement, and the Tar Sands in the context of the 2012 presidential
  campaign. Please visit the website for more information: http://jam
