Point Hope citizens ask help of Powershift2009 shell oil off alaska

indigenous citizens travel 2000 miles to share message with powershift 2009 youth and ask for help.

For starters, you can take action by submitting public comments to the Department of Interior at www.pacificenvironment.org/nodrilling.

Another great way to get involved is to buy a copy of Cost of Oil and have some screenings and house parties in your own community. If you visit www.pacificenvironment.org/costofoil there is information about how to buy the DVD. If you do decide to do an event, we'd love to support you in anyway possible (send notes, help with licensing, etc.)

they are fucking slobs? Maybe you should actually get to know them as people before you make such a generalization. Those who are in trouble should get help.

I dont recollect anyone having trouble breathing in that many numbers as she is stating-no human health studies have ever been done in and around by any agencies, maybe its about time!
