News has emerged from the Gulf Coast that BP is burning endangered sea turtles alive.
That’s right. BP is using “controlled burns” to contain the oil spill, and any turtles that are not removed from the area before the fire is lit are literally burned alive.
With BP already facing so much public outrage, we can step in and stop this from continuing. But we have to speak up right now. I signed a petition urging BP to stop burning endangered sea turtles alive. Can you join me at the link below?

..this disaster is reaching unprecedented proportions. In the very least, please sign the petition to let BP know how concerned we all are regarding this shocking issue in regards to the Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles & other wildlife reverberating from the Oil Spill in the Gulf Coast.
