'Stranded Assets' in Alberta’s Oilsands</b></font></a><br>
<font size="-1">Suncor Energy CEO Steve Williams<b> rocked the oil
industry boat when he announced a plan to leave some of the
company's oilsands reserves unrecovered</b> during a conference
call with investors....Williams said the company is working to
develop a plan with Alberta to "strand" its least economical
reserves, a proposal that appears to align with the call of
environmentalists to <b>leave the high-cost and high-carbon
fossil fuels in the ground to prevent catastrophic global
warming</b>..."We are advocating in a modest way to work with
government<b> so that we can strand some of the oil in the
oilsands</b>," Williams said, as reported by The Canadian Press</font><br>

When the U.S. military abandoned Camp Century, a complex of
tunnels dug into the ice of northwest Greenland, in the mid-1960s,
they left behind thousands of tons of waste, including hazardous
radioactive and chemical materials. <b>They expected the detritus
would be safely entombed in the ice sheet for tens of thousands
of years</b>, buried ever deeper under accumulating layers of
snow and ice... that <b>material could be exposed much, much
sooner—possibly even by the end of this century</b><br>
