Congress Poised to Allow Drilling in America's Greatest Coastal Wilderness
- "If the oil industry can drill in the Arctic Refuge, then no place, no matter how pristine, will be safe... Increasing America's energy security doesn't require selling off our natural heritage and letting oil companies despoil our last best places. Using better technology in our cars and trucks -- so they go farther on a gallon of gas -- would save more than 10 times the amount of oil in the refuge, and save consumers billions of dollars at the pump." - quote from Karen Wayland, legislative director at the Natural Resources Defense Council, appearing at http://www.nrdc.org/media/default.asp#0316arctic
