Your Signature is Needed: Help prevent a catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf

 

A pregnant sea turtle hauls herself onto shore. After swimming through oil-infested waters, she finds that her nesting grounds are also destroyed. The next generation of sea turtles appears to be doomed. The proposed Sea Port Oil Terminal risks catastrophic oil spills, threatening critically endangered sea turtles and the entire Texas Gulf region -- but YOU could stop it in its tracks. The Gulf Coast has felt the devastation of an oil spill many times before. Local fishing and tourism industries would be decimated, water resources would be tarnished, and the toll on human health would be immeasurable. You can help prevent all this misery, but it’s our LAST CHANCE. Prevent a catastrophic oil spill and demand the Sea Port Oil Terminal permit be DENIED before MIDNIGHT TONIGHT! >> SIGN THE PETITION NOW Oil spills in the Gulf are not an uncommon threat to those who live there. In fact, offshore pipeline leak rates are 10x higher in the Gulf than the national rate. And SPOT doesn’t just risk oil spills; it guarantees increased toxic air pollution, inflicting respiratory problems and increasing cancer risk for surrounding communities. Toxic pollution, contaminated drinking water, dead sea turtles -- there’s no shortage of reasons to oppose this crude oil export facility. And we are so close to getting its permit denied. If just 1 of every 7 people reading this email takes action, we can reach our goal to help stop this project. help keep a toxic crude oil export facility out of the Gulf!
