Oil Drilling at the Sand Dunes National Park. Options

[EchoBravo]

Living in Minnesota you don't see oil rigs pumping oil in the back grounds. Although I do find it pretty cool to see when traveling thru Wyoming & Colorado due to its novelty of our fading dependency. I just read that our current administration is auctioning off a lot of public land to the oil & gas industry for drilling in this national park. Now being an outsider and loving the current beauty of your state, our country, I find it a little disturbing that we would want to destroy such a beautiful spot with a big ole pump in the background. Not sure what the safety record is for Colorado's oil companies but it seems that if its anything like that pipeline promise, I feel sorry for any of the 'one of a kind' life that is found only in this national park. But mainly I was curious on how Coloradans feel about this? Not your political motivations but your true feeling on this as the land belongs to the people not the CEOs. :^)
