Preventing Future Oil Spills

The best way to prevent future oil spills is for Americans to use less oil. We have a hard time politically regulating oil companies because we need so much of what they produce.

You can use less oil by:

Walking, biking, or taking transit when you travel.

Drinking tap water. (Buy a filter if your tap water is not drinkable)

Avoid plastic containers.

Buy local foods.

Eat less meat.

Of course, we here like transit (buses and trains) for other reasons.
