Ask Pres. Obama and congress to stop giving permission to Shell Oil to drill in the Arctic. Shell has already had an oil spill accident with their test wells. Seventeen men were rescued, but the fate of endangered species is not clear. What happened to the promises to never allow another "BP" type oil spill like the one in the Gulf?
Why is this important?
Shell Oil has had an accident already in the Arctic in their drilling of test wells. Seventeen crew members were rescued, but the fate of endangered animals is not so clear. What happened to Pres. Obama's "promise" to keep another "BP" from happening? The US is one of the major exporters of oil. Do we need to ruin all our pristine areas and kill endangered species for the sake of greed?
