Tsilhqot’in vs. Taseko Mines by soheiln

10192767Here we have a classic case of protecting the environment or a bunch of rich people making even more money at the cost of beautiful landscapes lost. I believe the people, the corporations and the governments of earth have to wake and and realize global warming is a real thing and our continued efforts in degrading the environment will, without any shadow of doubt, lead to our own demise. The environmental costs of setting up this mine heavily outweigh its benefits by orders of magnitude as the amount of habitat, clean water and animals that will suffer due to the extraction of gold from Dasiqox Tribal Park by Taseko Mines project of Fish Lake is beyond comprehension. This alone should deter anyone from destroying such priceless things, but to even further the damage, the mine itself will produce so much waste and pollution that it is simply just not a sensible thing for the government to allow.
