Sarah's Social Action Snapshot: Jewish Christmas Day

Conservation groups, led by the actor Robert Redford (who, apparently, also directed The Legend of Bagger Vance (I may or may not have lost a bet concerning that fact this weekend)) are suing the Bush administration to stop the Bureau of Land Management from auctioning drilling leases to more than 100,000 acres of wildland in eastern Utah.

That sentence got a little long, didn't it? Okay. We'll sum up. The Associated Press (via MSNBC) says conservation groups are trying to stop the government from allowing drilling near Utah's national parks. You know what? Let's just let Robert Redford tell us what's what.

You can http://nrdc.org/ and visit the Natural Resources Defense Council, the group heading up the lawsuit.

Hmm I thought it was "two Jews, three opinions". Perhaps "ideas" is the 21st century politically correct phrase?
