Pembina Institute for Appropriate Development Albertans and Canadians are<br />
increasingly concerned when they look at the way Alberta’s oil sands are being developed.<br />
Amidst growing urgency about the need to fight global warming, the oil sands have emerged<br />
as Canada’s fastest-growing source of greenhouse gas pollution. Other impacts — from<br />
drawing down the Athabasca River to the creation of toxic tailings dumps, to hundreds of<br />
square kilometers of strip-mining and drilling in the boreal forest — are growing just as<br />
rapidly. Web: http://www.oilsandswatch.org/ [20 Feb 2010]<br />
Peninsula Copwatch An all-volunteer organization dedicated to monitoring Police activity<br />
in the Silicon Valley Cities of Los Altos, Palo Alto and Mountain View, California. Nonviolently<br />
asserting our civil rights, and defending the rights of the community. Peninsula<br />
Copwatch is one of several Copwatch chapters that have been established across the United<br />
States and Canada, in various forms. Peninsula Copwatch is based on the idea that<br />
WATCHING the police is a crucial first step in the process of organizing. We do not attempt to<br />
interfere in legitimate police activity or to resist police misconduct physically. It is our hope<br />
that, some day, mass outrage at police and government violence will increase to a point where<br />
fundamental change in the nature of policing become inevitable.<br />
