Boycott BP

As you may or may not know, British Petroleum (BP) has gotten permission from the state of Indiana to dump increased quantities of ammonia and suspended solids into lake michigan. The EPA says they can't do anything to stop it but will beg BP to do something nice in return for ignoring the clean water act.
I don't know about you , but I like my drinking water without ammonia and sludge.
While there has been some politicking against BP and and a petition it's doubtful they will stop the dumping. It's apparent that we must act on our own. The only way to stop BP is to hurt them economically. So boycott BP. Buy your gasoline elsewhere and encourage everyone you know to do the same. Then email BP and tell them your boycotting. This shouldn't be a hardship for anyone. There are plenty of other gas stations to go to.
