Climate Action at Total Refinery in France
A Greenpeace activist looks up as banners are displayed on the chimneys of Total's refinery in Gonfreville-l'Orcher, reading in French "Sustainable destruction" and 'Climate crime". The action is in protest against the oil company's decision to invest in tar sands oil production in Canada. Oil extraction from tar sands is a process with huge environmental costs, damaging land, air, water, forests, and the climate.

Climate Action at Total Refinery in France
Greenpeace carries out an action at the Total’s refinery site in Gonfreville-l'Orcher, to protest against the oil company's decision to invest more than 8 billion Euros in tar sands oil production in Alberta, Canada.
The tar sands consist of a tarry bitumen mixed with shale and sand from which oil is extracted through a long, expensive and complex process. The explosive growth of this process has huge environmental costs, damaging land, air, water, forests, and the climate.
