Palmetto Bay, Fla— “We are deeply opposed to oil exploration in the heart of America’s Everglades. The Everglades is the water supply for over 8 million Floridians, and the state and federal governments have spent billions of dollars to protect and restore this national treasure. Oil exploration poses an unacceptable risk to the Everglades, as well as to the efforts and investments being made to protect and restore it.”
