800 protests world-wide call for renewable energy, no oil drilling

Hand In Hand, Protesters Oppose Offshore Oil Drilling | unEARTHED, 28 June 2010, “………..Their message is clear: No more Gulf oil spill disasters………movement has spread far and wide as people witness daily the threat that oil drilling presents to America’s coastal economies and marine habitat. On Saturday, protestors around the world gathered at one of the more than 800 events held to clasp hands, drawing both a metaphorical and actual line in the sand against the threat of offshore drilling.
The hope is that the gesture will help convince our government that we’re serious about the need to preserve some of America’s most valuable assets—our coastal areas—by halting the expansion of offshore drilling and adopting policies that encourage the development of clean and renewable sources of energy.
