Activists occupy planned upgrader in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta

Greenpeace has struck again against a tar sands operation.

Nineteen international activists have scaled three stacks at Shell’s Scotford operation in upgrader alley near Edmonton. Their goal: expose more of the climate crimes of the tar sands and send a Climate SOS to the world.

Just days after Greenpeace shut down two conveyor belts connecting an open-pit mine to a processing plant, and two weeks after Greenpeace shut down a Shell mining operation in the heart of the tar sands, activists from Canada, France, Brazil and Australia have scaled an under-construction upgrader in the heart of “cancer alley” outside of Edmonton.
