From the Inbox: Is the crisis in the Gulf really behind us?

Dear Friend, Do you believe the crisis in the Gulf is behind us? BP would like us to believe so. But we don't believe it. Government statistics still can't tell us about what happened to most of the millions of gallons of oil that gushed from the well, and even more importantly how it's damaged ocean life. To get a full picture of this disaster, we need to know what's going on in the Gulf Today, we are getting set to launch our research expedition to find out. But we've got two months ahead of us and that equals a lot of fuel and supplies. Please donate today to ramp up our expedition TODAY, and a generous supporter will match every dollar, up to $50,000 This mission is vital and we need your help. Your donation will support our team understand how sharks, sea turtles, corals and other marine life have been affected by the oil and what we need to do to protect them over the long term. With your help, we'll be able to extend our research and get the facts.	Getting the Facts on the Oil Spill Today, we are beginning our two-month research expedition into the aftermath of the BP drilling disaster. Help support this trip by August 31 and your gift will be doubled. Make a Donation
