What's New

Good news from the Gulf! According to BP, the new well cap shows promise in stopping the flow of oil into the gulf. Unfortunately, millions of gallons of oil have already leaked into the Gulf of Mexico, and the environment will continue to be damaged for years to come.

Please take a second to sign our petition to President Obama.

Help us stop more spills and prevent corporations like BP from further damaging the environment today!

Overview

BP’s Gulf oil spill is the worst environmental disaster and the worst oil spill in US history. The terrible disaster will have an impact on people lives, communities, animals, and the environment for decades.  Even now, months after the disaster, BP is still unable to stop the gushing oil and is not expected to until August.

We can’t stop the flow of oil from BP’s oil spill, but we can make sure it doesn’t happen again.
