As the BP Horizon continues to spew oil into the gulf and the spill begins to wash up on Florida's coasts, another potential greater crisis continues to loom - the BP Atlantis.
As featured on 60 minutes, the Atlantis potentially poses a greater threat than Horizon and lacks important safety documentation. It continues to be allowed to operate.
A new video from Food & Water Watch asks: Why does President Obama continue to trust BP to operate the Atlantis?
A congressional sign-on letter lead by Representative Raúl Grijalva has urged the shutting down of BP Atlantis until proven safe. Yet it continues to operate.
BP has continually shown itself to not be trustworthy. Why do we continue to trust them to operate the BP Atlantis and their other deepwater rigs in the gulf?
In light of what happened with Horizon, doesn't it make more sense to shut down all the BP gulf platforms until proven safe?
Check out Food & Water Watch's new video and ask President Obama to shut down Atlantis until proven safe...
Because we shouldn't have to trust BP.
