	Alexander's Gas & Oil Connections - WWF sees wildlife in Europe’s last unspoiled sea under threat
		In a new development, WWF has discovered that while the Norwegian government has commissioned environmental impact assessments (EIAs) for oil and gas developments in the Barents Sea, some assessments -- such as the environmental impact assessment of oil and gas on fisheries -- were carried out in just four weeks.
		At the same time the Norwegian government also secretly asked oil companies to comment on the drafts before they were sent out for public hearing, so undermining both their scientific and independent credibility.
		WWF would prefer oil and gas companies to stay out of sensitive areas of biodiversity, but where this is unavoidable, then oil and gas free zones must be put in place first," said Samantha Smith, director of WWF’s Arctic Programme.
