I was referring only to approval and promotion of drilling.

Bringing up conservation is a straw man. While conservation is wonderful and all, why don't you address the serious problems of drilling and fracking, along with the TPP?

If you are not informed on this, you should do some searching and reading. It WILL open your eyes.
