The Sundance Kid ‘Stings’ Alaska’s Pebble gold mining mega-project

Academy-award winning director, actor and environmental activist, Robert Redford, Thursday became the latest face of those opposed to the development of the massive Pebble copper-gold mining project near Bristol Bay in Alaska.

In a blog published on the Huffington Post political website, Redford claimed, “I am not against mining. I am against putting mega-mines where they don’t belong.”
