Talk:Orinoco Belt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] merge Orinoco Belt with Orinoco tar sands?
Interesting, both articles date back to 2005.
- Orinoco Tar Sands was started seven months earlier.
- Orinoco Belt is longer, has more edits, and more articles link to it.
Darn, I guess we should go with Orinoco Belt.
Annoying because I never agreed with the move of Athabasca Tar Sands to Athabasca Oil Sands -- which I saw as a surrender to power of deceitful spin doctors. Oil Sands being the new term invented by shills to mask how truly dirty current extraction methods are. Geo Swan (talk) 03:18, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Water supply?
In Alberta every barrel extracted requires several barrels of water. Alberta is relatively dry. The Athabasca water that is used contains a large measure of glacial meltwater. What is the water supply like in the Orinoco region?
