one tool that pp utilize that was very powerful. you saw the pictures. i hope you saw them in the beginning. greenpeace took such important photographs of this event, not just the work, but the photographs that capture it. they are used throughout the book to try and make tangible -- or imagery the story of this event, but capturing those photographs became more and more difficult. one reason why is because if you remember in valdez it was the photographs of the royal soap that really captured people's souls. people organized aggressively in their response. they shut down exxon's stations. they protested and amended policy. they got out of the bush administration, the bush senior administration a critical piece of legislation, the oil pollution act. similarly in 1969 off the coast of santa barbara when an oil well will people organized, there were galvanized. there were ready. they saw the imagery that captured their heart and souls. a year later they got earth day, the clean water act, the clean air act, the environmental protection agency and 11 years
