Seismic airgun testing is used to find deep pockets of oil in the sea floor. The decibels produced by airgun blasts are loud enough to kill a human at close range. For marine life, like the endangered North Atlantic right whale, the stakes are too high.
The Obama administration’s Department of the Interior will decide on whether or not to allow seismic airgun testing in 2013. To show public opposition to this proposal, New Jersey Senator Frank Lautenberg is urging other members of the Senate to voice their opposition to airgun testing.
Call and ask your Senators to stand with Senator Frank Lautenberg and other leaders in Congress against seismic airgun testing in the Atlantic.
