On March 18th, the Spanish government gave the Green light to a deep water oil exploration project barely 60 kms. off the coast of the Canary islands Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, where these wells are supposed to be and could yield as much as 100.000 barrels of oil per day.
Facing the actual risk of irreversible contamination that this activity implies in these circumstances, the Canary islands inhabitants say NO to this oil production in their coast.
