In an effort to raise awareness about the plans to allow oil drilling along Florida’s coast, organizers of Hands Across the Sand plan a beach rally that includes people joining hands at 1:30 PM on beaches throughout the state. This union will reflect the group’s opposition to the risk of environmental disaster from oil spills and other effects that could spoil the natural beauty we share.
Hands Across the Sand also recognizes the significance of beaches as a draw for the largest industry in the state – tourism. A single oil spill could destroy the states economy for years to come.
