This Docket is in support of allowing offshore drilling on both the East and West seaboards by 2024. It is coming from the Trump administration. As the Environmental Justice Club, we feel it is our responsibility to respond to the appearance of this Docket. It has been shown that oil drilling in the ocean causes oil spills, which decimate the wildlife and the surrounding ecosystem(s). To allow oil companies to drill off of all of the coasts will drastically increase chances of oil spills. Also, the bill will kill local tourism revenue, by turning coastal towns into a dead zone. As a club, we are strongly against the approval of this docket. Also being residents in a coastal town makes us feel even more against this Docket because we swim in the ocean frequently and therefore refuse to allow our beautiful ocean to be polluted and destroyed.
March 8, 2018 Since the last post, we have taken inventory of our meeting The greenhouse and made a plan to put it back in working order. In the The Greenhouse we found a very large mess lots of unused pots that we plan to re-purpose and much dry useless planting soil that sadly can no longer be used to plant seeds. We also plan to do weeding around The Greenhouse as the floor has been left to decay and many weeds have sprouted since it was last used. We have also been looking into the possible off-campus activity that we are looking into there are two possible marches and other activity's such as beach cleanups putting up recyclable posters in our cities.
