Facebook abandoned massive amounts of drilling fluid and equipment in the ocean. Demand they clean it up!

Vladimir,

Since April 28, 2020, broken drilling equipment — as well as 6,500 gallons of bore gel and broken piping — has been hanging out just off the Oregon coast in the ocean, harming the local habitat and environment and posing an accident just waiting to happen. Why, you may ask? Because of Facebook. One of their subsidiaries was using a fracking technique to install a fiber optic cable when their equipment snapped and broke. Instead of cleaning it up and alerting proper authorities, they just left it there! Sign now to tell Facebook to clean up this mess immediately and stop the project entirely!

It's absolutely unacceptable that Facebook thinks, because they are a massive company, they can just leave their gross equipment in the ocean where it's harming the local ecosystem. They are claiming there is no harm in leaving it there, but environmental experts say the opposite. Luckily, Oregon could actually revoke Facebook's permits at any time to prevent further damage. With all of our voices raised together, we have a real chance to stop this fiasco before it's too late.

Thank you,
