Dear All,

 

After all this, they want MORE drilling?


Tell President Obama, it’s time to end offshore drilling and focus on clean energy.

Despite the ongoing disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, President Obama is pushing to open MORE drilling rigs.1

First Obama promised to halt new offshore drilling projects until we find out what went wrong in the Gulf and make sure it doesn’t happen again. But now it seems that some members of Obama’s team think it’s time to start drilling again.2  Has Obama flip-flopped on offshore drilling?

We have to stop this. Click here to sign our petition telling President Obama to drop ALL offshore drilling plans and focus on clean energy instead.

It’d be a comedy of errors if it weren’t so tragic: It’s been more than a month since the rig exploded, killing 11 workers and unleashing the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history. But we still don’t know how much oil is coming out of the broken pipe, what undersea plumes of oil are doing to animal and plant life nearby or how this will affect the economy of the Gulf states in the future.3 Most important, we’ve got NO idea how to stop this thing.

All of this proves one thing: There’s no way to keep relying on dirty fuels like oil and keep our environment safe. Which is exactly why we need President Obama to stop opening more drilling sites and focus on clean energy alternatives instead. But he’s clearly not getting the message yet. Click here to sign our petition and tell your friends — we’ll make sure it gets delivered so Obama hears us.

Thanks,

– Drew
