Dear Nadine, Yes let us not kill a caribou, A rolling blackout will cause not auto accidents and no deaths of humans. Human's who cares, A babe is for having it brains sucked out if mommy has a bad hair day. So by all means let us preserve the wolf's lunch.

But please Nadine WOW us with you theory of how using .0009 % of a place will cause even one death of the wolf's lunch. Over hear in CT we have dear up the cazoo carrying ticks to control the human population and they control air polution by taking out autos all the time.
We have such dirty air here that we have to use mbte in our gas and that has leaked and has contaminated lots of the water shes and that is also reducing human populations.

Nadine, Apparently you do not know that <<caribou>> DO <<make direct contribution to the GDP>>. They are killed and eaten as a subsistence food by native Alaskans. They are hunted by sportsman who pay guides and outfitters, who pay taxes. They are photographed by tourists who come here from all over the world and eat our food and stay in our hotels and ooh and ahh with their dollars. They are killed and eaten by wolves, who inconveniently fail to pose for the ethereal paintings that many fine artists sell to tourists and natives alike. All this happens while caribou walk around underneath and around and over the pipeline like they always did before they started contributing to the GNP.

Think of it like this: If the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is your house (apartment, whatever), and you soil a postage stamp on the floor -- that's more relative impact than the drilling footprint will be on ANWR.
