ShareThis June 12, 2010 10:24 a.m. EST Topics: politics, company information, environmental issue, citizens initiative and recall, environmental pollution, water pollution, economy, business and finance, United States Orlando, FL, United States (AHN) - As the BP oil spill spreads to Central Florida, so do protests against the company. Orlando, Daytona Beach and Cocoa Beach are sites of planned protests Saturday as Florida residents demand BP step up efforts to clean up the spill and minimize damage it has already created. Protests have also spread throughout the U.S. and Canada as the spill continues deep into a second month. "Let the world know YOU care," said a flyer on one group's Facebook page, which called the company 'British Predator' in a play on words of BP. "We need to let BP know that we are NOT okay with what they are putting in OUR oceans." Some are concerned that continued BP "bashing" could cause the company stock to drop severely, however, which could leave American taxpayers to foot the bill should the company go bankrupt. Despite efforts to contain the leak, estimates are that 1,000 to 5,000 barrels of oil a day are spilling into the Gulf causing damage to wildlife and businesses alike. Furious U.S. government officials, including President Obama, have promised to hold BP responsible for the spill, which began April 20. "BP misrepresented what their technology could do," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday. "They misrepresented the amount of oil that was being spewed forth into the Gulf and continued to do so."
