Protect Wildlife in Bristol Bay from Oil Drilling
Target: President BushSponsored by: Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund
The Bristol Bay is home to endangered Northern Pacific right whales and Steller sea lions. It is also one of the worldÂ’s most productive fishing grounds, with and important snow crab fishery and the planetÂ’s largest sockeye salmon run.
But President Bush has a different vision for this precious piece of the Pacific: he wants to turn it over to profit-rich Big Oil, lifting a moratorium that has been in place since the disastrous Exxon Valdez spill.
Now is not the time to open more wild lands to oil drilling. ItÂ’s the time to protect the wildlife and fishing interests in this fragile region and invest in alternative energy sources that are well within our reach. Sign this petition to help prevent another Big Oil spill in AlaskaÂ’s still recovering Bristol Bay.

Oil is limited, and so is the wildlife that this oil drilling is going to threaten. put more money into finding alternate energy instead of destroying every last bit of the planet in an effort to suck every drop of oil from it possible. It's not worth the money or the cost to the Alaskan ecosystem at this point.

Because there are just a few small places on earth that MUST not be plundered to increase the profits (that are already obscene) for oil corporations.

Do not drill in Brisol Bay, haven't we opened up enough oil drilling in America (Gulf of Mexico). Or our you still not satisfied with how much money is in your and your friends pockets. Protect the environment for future generations.
