Dawn Saves Wildlife

What's going down in the gulf is bad. First and foremost, 11 people are missing. Unaccounted for. Can't be found. That itself is horrible beyond measure, especially for their families.

And then there's the impending potential ecological disaster. Could be bigger than Exxon Valdez, they say.

That's a disaster. Whatever form of energy production we pursue, if we break an ecosystem we'd damn well better do what we can to fix it.

So wash your dishes. With Dawn. And make sure you register your bottle so the IBRRC and the Marine Mammal Center get their $1.
