Even the oil sands ultimate
consumption in a gasoline, diesel or jet engine only results in 500 kilograms of CO2 - equivalent per barrel of refined petroleum products, meaning
total oil sands emissions from well to wheel are considerably lower than those of this nation's
more than 500 power plants burning coal to generate
electricity.
