Title: Should offshore drilling be stopped altogether? Post by: Bobbie Ireland on 07-May-10, 03:20:12 PM I'm guessing that many of you, like me, receive a number of newsletters from a variety of environmental groups. (I have no idea how some "unsubscribed" ones reach me but they do...)
In the past few days, groups which I would (perhaps naively?) classify as bona-fide have been calling for a complete ban to offshore oil drilling... for obvious reasons. I would be very interested indeed to hear what other members of the forum think about this. I certainly do not have all the necessary information - nor do I always react objectively, especially when I see oiled birds which will probably never recover, in spite of all the best efforts. Any input? Thanks! Bobbie Title: Re: Should offshore drilling be stopped altogether?

Sad for nature. :(
