It's not very difficult to create some buzz about boycotting BP. It's all over
twitter and facebook. People are connecting and talking about it. If it reaches
a critical mass, and a few celebrities and environmental groups jump on board,
the media will have to pick it up. It's all a matter of ri

Well we all know, given our current dependence on oil, refusing to buy fuel for
our cars is impossible. A better way is to
BP brands to boycott include Castrol, Arco, Aral, am/pm, Amoco, and Wild Bean
Cafe. It's not difficult to boycott BP in Iowa, it's fairly obvious. If I
inadvertently fill-up with BP, I'm not going to worry about it. Being a purest
about it is not the point. The point is to raise public awareness
The only way to make them pay is stop being a consumer do not buy anything at

Yes. And part of the tax can be used as a means tested credit, or more
immediately, an offset to the payroll tax which all low income workers pay.
However, the cost of fuel for an EV is 1/10 of that of a car (more so if its an
older gas guzzler) and thus aggressive credits and loans to enable

It's not a lot of effort to buy my gas elsewhere. It's simply a statement of
solidarity with everyone who feels BP has raped our planet for greed. Obviously
our addiction to oil makes us culpable. A A BP boycott won't significantly
affect their bottom. It's value is that it raises public awarene
