Protect Wildlife in Bristol Bay from Oil Drilling
Target: President BushSponsored by: Defenders of Wildlife
The Bristol Bay is home to endangered Northern Pacific right whales and Steller sea lions. It is also one of the worlds most productive fishing grounds, with and important snow crab fishery and the planets 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. Its 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 Alaskas still recovering Bristol Bay.

You should know that environmental issues are the most important thing. God did say in the 1st book of the bible to protect the environment and its animals. Don't let them do this crap to Earth.

why is it that oil drilling seems to be half of these petitions? why won't society realize that drilling as a whole is destroying what little space we've left for wildlife in the world?

We should not lift the moratorium on oil drilling in Bristol Bay because it presents too many risks and the gain would not be worth the loss.

I Think that instead of lining you pockets with the money you make from the oil buissness you need to start looking for other fuel types and other types of cars...

Haven't you done enough damage yet? Just stop now, for pity's sake. Salvage something from your administration which is positive for the history books since you have such a dismal record all around. Of course, that is assuming you care.

Anther example of bush & pukes trying to destroy an environment in Bristol Bay and other precious areas. They don't care other than turning areas over to oil corporations for oil profits for a few people profit and heck with everything else. The moratorium should remain in place. We all remember what happened with the disastrous Exxon Valdez spill.
