Is this something Green Peace does?
Released Feb. 7, 2007:
"The crude oil that lingers in Prince William Sound
and the Gulf of Alaska from the nation's largest
tanker spill is likely to be present for many years, a
new federal study released Wednesday concludes."
(Anchorage Daily News)
""Such persistence can pose a contact hazard to
inter-tidally foraging sea otters, sea ducks, and
shorebirds, create a chronic source of low-level
contamination, discourage subsistence in a region
where use is heavy and degrade the wilderness
character of protected lands," the researchers
conclude." (Science Daily)
By the way here's another interesting note on
Exxon from the Anchorage Daily News as follows:
"Exxon estimates it has paid $3 billion in cleanup
costs, government settlements, fines and compensation.
But it still has not paid an unresolved punitive
damage judgment, originally set for $5 billion by a
federal jury in 1994.
The case has since bounced between the federal court
and the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. In
December, the appeals court ruled that the oil giant
must pay $2.5 billion to compensate thousands of
fishermen and others affected by the spill.
Earlier this month, Exxon asked the court to
reconsider its decision.
John Devens, executive director of the Prince William
Sound Regional Citizens' Advisory Council, said
Exxon's prolonged stalling were unconscionable
considering the social, economic and environmental
damages.
"It's very difficult to understand why Exxon isn't a
better industrial citizen," Devens said."
So, is this something Green Peace would do?
