Program Title: Terra Informa - Season 8, Episode 33 - Animal Personalities, Green Cremation, StatOil Charges
Description: This past week saw tar sands developer StatOil in court facing charges related to 19 contraventions of the Water Allocation Act. We caught up with representatives of Greenpeace outside the courthouse to discuss the nature of the infractions and their concerns with the industry. Wildlife researcher Robert Found tells us about work he's done identifying different personality types amoung elk and the impact it will have on conservation efforts. We learn about two new methods of cremation that are cleaning up the industry's sooty reputation, and we round out the show with a look at ecosystem markets and how they help economists factor the environment into their calculations. All that, plus your wrap up of the week's news headlines.

Host(s): Alex Hindle
Featured Speakers/Guests: Robert Found - Master's student, Biological Sciences, University of Alberta; Martin Norman - Norwegian Representative for Greenpeace; Melina Laboucan-Massimo - Greenpeace Energy Campaigner
