UK MP's Say NO To Arctic Drilling.

A cross party commitee of UK Members of Parliament has concluded that any oil spill in the Arctic would be devastating to the fragile wildlife it supports.

It added that it would take more than six months before such a spill could be capped, leaving miles of oil devastation to an area that should be protected as a world national park to prevent profit making organisations like Shell from destroying it.

Go here for the full story.

This Saturday is Shell Day 2 and Greenpeace activists will be outside Shell petrol stations across the uk, so why not come along and show your opposition to drilling for polluting oil in the unique arctic waters and help tell Shell to GET OUT AND STAY OUT OF THE ARCTIC.
