Though the event is being coordinated through a network of college environmental groups (Iowa STEP), it will be very professional and totally legal. All are invited. Matt Trager -------------- *** TAKE ACTION AGAINST BP-AMOCO, FIGHT FOR THE ARCTIC *** Environmentalists across the country have mobilized around saving the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, which is currently threatened by pressure from oil companies to drill in the last pristine tract of Alaska's North Slope. We need to say NO to these efforts and fight for the preservation of this valuable Refuge by telling oil companies like BP-Amoco that we disapprove of their actions. WHEN: Thursday, May 11 9:30 am to 11:00 am WHERE: Amoco distribution center 1501 Clive, West Des Moines WHAT: 9:30 Gather on site, talk to press, wave signs, yell 10 Press conference 10:15 Enter the office to deliver petitions and statements Invite the press to observe Ask the manager to call BP-Amoco about the action 10:30 Leave with a feeling of contentment WHO: Iowa STEP activists, Iowa environmentalists, and guests This is our LAST ACTION OF THE YEAR!!! Let's make it good.
