A paid "no drilling" ad from WWF

Maybe World Wildlife Fund's (WWF) coffers are deeper than the chemical industry's if they can afford to post an ad in the New York Times about their opposition to Bush's oil drilling approval in Arctic waters and US coasts.

The ad in yesterday's Times argues that more drilling would have virtually no impact on gas prices, and could have a negative impact on America's wilderness and waters.

Last week, WWF sent an action-alert to 74,000 of its members asking them to urge Congress to uphold the current drilling ban.
