Evanthia and Rose have recently learned that a global energy company, Repsol, plans to extract 1.8 billion litres of water (enough drinking water for 2.5 million people for a year) annually for fracking from the Clearwater River — a river they already worry is running low — and they say they’re not going to just stand by and watch.
Repsol’s application was approved by the Alberta Energy Regulator last week.
The Clearwater is a tributary for the North Saskatchewan River, which is the sole source of drinking water for the City of Edmonton. #abpoli #ableg
