A Humorous Yet Practical Guide for the Clueless of Any Species.
It has been clear since the late 1980s that the big oil and gas companies were dramatically destabilizing the climate. Now Gulf Coast residents get to watch a massive acceleration of the effects of big oil practices right at their shores.
The Gulf Oil Spill is large enough to threaten serious effects on the environment and the economy. Every effort needs to be spent to plug this hole.
You can use this PBS widget to estimate the size of the Gulf Oil Spill catastrophe based on various estimates. So you know, most independent scientists insist on the higher estimates.
According to independent sources, the oil is likely to gush at high levels for a long time… months and months. Therefore, it’s going to add up to massive deaths and extinctions throughout the Gulf, Caribbean, and even the Atlantic. The entire Gulf is likely to end up a dead zone. And there are going to be world-wide repercussions.
If it keeps spilling at this rate, it will reach the eastern seaboard and well beyond.
Scientists strongly suggest rapid deployment of clean up operations — while at the same time more attempts are made to slow or stop the underwater gushing of oil.
This disaster is big and it’s only going to get a lot bigger. It needs a lot of attention ASAP.
Since this is about an oil (chemical) spill, let’s take another peak at the Bio & Chemical Hazard Quiz:
