Support Docket BOEM-2017-0074

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.

Progress

It's a sunny spring afternoon while I write this post. The sunlight streams down on the redwood trees in the forest and the grass of the fields. A breeze wafts through the air carrying the scents of the wild, flowers and pine. Inside our classroom the other members of the Enviromental Justice Club are gathered around the half-finished poster. It's a chaos that comes of creative minds or at least thats what I'm saying to justify the mess all over the table. Paperclips strewn all around mixing with cut pieces of trash, dirty brushes, sharpies and paint. In the center a baby blue bike is painted on paper with straw wheels pinwheeling in the small breeze. Some just got back after doing the trash pickup, laughing their heads off over god knows what.  The Enviromental Club
