Long Live the Whales: Help Stop Seismic Air Gun Testing
Wednesday, Oct 24 and Thursday, Oct 25 from 2 to 4 pm
Tables outside of MGC
Seismic airgun testing is used by oil companies to find deep pockets of oil in the sea floor. The blasts from the airguns occur every 10 seconds, 24 hours a day, for weeks at a time. Seismic airgun testing is planned to occur in the Atlantic next year and must be stopped! It has the potential to hurt our fishing industry and injure over 100,000 marine animals, including the critically endangered right whale.
Oceana and Eco-Sense will be tabling outside of MGC this Wednesday and Thursday from 2-4 collecting photo petitions to stop seismic airgun testing. Come out, take a picture, stop seismic airgun testing!
