For the past 2 years we have been warning you. Many didn’t believe that drilling for gas and oil offshore in the Algarve would ever happen. After all there’s been talk on and off for past 10 years and nothing happened till now. http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/politics/2014/07/09/spain-repsol-to-explore-for-gas-in-portugal-algarve-region/ Well time to wake-up ... and really take action. Time is running out! What will you tell your children in the future because YOU DID NOTHING? 1. When there is no work for them in the future in the Algarve? 2. When they can’t fish in the Algarve waters due to pollution caused by drilling chemicals and spills? Because fish is so contaminated that you cant eat it safely? 3. When they can’t use the sea because it’s full of platforms and protected areas? 4. When you have to sell your house below the price that you paid for it because nobody wants to live here anymore? 5. When you can’t pass your business over to them because you are forced to close it down? 6. When you can’t feed yourself, or them, or your family anymore? 7. When you are forced to leave the Algarve because there is no more tourism, or money to support you and your family? All it will take is YOU doing NOTHING! Is this what YOU really want for your kids?
