I long ago stopped believing that most corporations and politicians had the good of the public in mind. We need independent groups like Food & Water Watch to raise awareness and advocate for ethical, environmentally positive laws.
Food & Water Watch Spill the Truth Protest August 25, 2010
With the Horizon disaster now seemingly contained, some may think that all major threats to the Gulf and Gulf Coast communities are also under control. But BP’s Atlantis is a ticking time bomb.
Along with a protest in front of the hearing building, Food & Water Watch delivered over 5500 petitions to the National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling during the commission’s hearing in Washington, D.C.
Test your knowledge of BP and what’s really going on with its deepwater oil platforms. With each fact, Food & Water Watch offers recommendations to better protect our oceans and keep the bodies that monitor these platforms independent of industry influence.
A project of Food & Water Watch, the "Spill the Truth" campaign keeps you informed on the latest news regarding BP and the oil spill.

The recent Gulf oil spill was not a freak accident. Strong evidence reveals that another BP oil platform — the Atlantis — is a disaster waiting to happen. Learn more and find out how you can help Food & Watch Watch shut down Atlantis until it is proven safe.

Food & Water Watch officially filed a lawsuit in a Houston federal court today. The suit seeks a temporary injunction to halt BP’s Atlantis operations in the Gulf of Mexico. As oil from the Deepwater Horizon continues to leak off the coast of Louisiana, we are reminded that BP continues to operate Atlantis without critical safety documents. In the meantime, we have launched Spill the Truth, a special website created to warn about the potential dangers of Atlantis and to ask people to take action to help prevent another BP disaster.
