Throughout it’s history, Alberta has been known for its natural beauty. Today people come from all over the world to enjoy the scenery. In the past, people came west to start new lives and exploit the resources the province had to offer. Resource development is still a big industry in Alberta. This has led to many environmental problems in the past, and with the new technology being developed, comes new problems. The links below will take you to the Alberta Naturally website where you can learn about some of the problems that Alberta’s environment is facing.
