I heard this on the radio today:

“British Petroleum has announced plans to dump up to 1,584 pounds of ammonia and 4,925 pounds of industrial solids into Lake Michigan every single day from a BP refinery in Whiting, Indiana — a massive setback to decades of work to clean up the lake.”

The commercial (as well as the petition drive) was paid for by the Friends of Dick Durbin and Friends of Rahm Emanuel committees. I know Durbin is not that popular, but please put your political affiliations aside and look at the bigger picture.

I realize that some of you may not have any connection to Lake Michigan or have never lived near it, but I still think the cause is worthy and should be looked at by all.
