Actually, by pumping oil out of the ground in a controlled manner, we maybe preventing environmental damage by limiting what comes out uncontrolled!

Very good article Rick. Really puts in perspective, the need, options, and alternatives. I never would have guessed that over a million barrels a year seep into the oceans from natural cracks in the ocean floor. Makes sense though.

Here is a good article on the recent oil spill that puts that event into perspective:

All is not as bad as the government and media would have you believe.   After all, "never let a good crisis go to waste"!

Americans Want Clean Green Energy From Wind Power

In a national survey administered in March by Public Opinion Strategies and Bennett, Petts & Normington, results showed that an overwhelming bipartisan majority -- 89% -- of American voters (including 84% of Republicans, 88% of Independents and 93% of Democrats) believe increasing the amount of energy the nation gets from wind is a good idea.  Furthermore, a majority of Americans -- 56% -- disapprove of the job Congress is doing on renewable energy and 67% believe Congress is not doing enough to increase renewable energy sources such as wind.
