If the environment is the reason for Obama's actions, I guess what you are saying then, is that the part of the world where Brazil is, is not worthy of Obama's protection? Only US waters? Is that Obama's environmental policy?

Obama can't force enviromental regulations on other countries...they are going to drill anyways, so why not help them and reap the benefits. america has a long history of having other countries do its dirty work. they're doing it in just about every shitty country across the globe right now. Like I said, they should be working on alternate fuel sources. I think offshore is probably the worst idea. they'd be better off drilling on some old farm land, not something that can destroy beaches or protected land.
