Port of Seattle Sells out Public to Arctic Drillers; How We Ruined the Oceans

(Before It's News)

Port Of Seattle Dodged Public Input, Hosts Arctic Drilling Rigs. Last month, the Port Commission held only one public meeting on the quietly negotiated deal. Then last night, the Seattle Times reported that port CEO Ted Fick sent a letter to Earthjustice, the environmental group, revealing that he had already signed the lease.
