Pamlico Progressives Present: NC & Oil - Apr 28

April 28 @ 4p, Pamlico Progressives Present: Why is NC Ground Zero for Big Oil? at Gary’s Downeast Seafood Restaurant, 7610 Highway 306 S, Arapahoe, NC.

The community discussion will focus on these questions:
Where do things stand now with the oil drilling?
What is Seismic Blasting, where will they do it, and is it really a big deal?
What is Incidental Take and how harmful is it?
What does the National Marine Fisheries Service have to say about it?
Does drilling guarantee that we will find oil?
How does this whole process endanger our economy, tourism and livelihoods?
Are there really only 400 Right Whales left? How will the search for oil injure or kill them?

The meeting is co-sponsored by Oceana, Gary’s Seafood Restaurant, and Stop Offshore Drilling in the Atlantic (SODA). For more information, contact Diane Lemieux @ 802-318-1083.
