Now, an oil spill on pace to be worse than Exxon Valdez is pumping at least 5,000 barrels of oil a day – that's over 200,000 gallons – into the biologically diverse and commercially productive Gulf of Mexico. Thousands of sea birds, dolphins, whales, sea turtles, and other animals are threatened by the ever growing plume of toxic sludge.
Offshore drilling will NEVER be safe. Sign the petition to end new offshore drilling now.
