Oil Spill Gulf of Mexico, Diving Into the Into Gulf’s Oily Waters.

Cousteau Jr.: ‘This Is a Nightmare… a Nightmare’ Philippe Cousteau Jr. and Sam Champion take hazmat dive into Gulf’s oily waters. 05/25/2010 Regulators Accepted Gifts From Oil Industry, Report US Coast Guard estimates of the amount of oil surging into the Gulf of Mexico from the Deepwater Horizon rig may be low by a factor of 10 or more, National Public Radio has reported. Analysis of sea floor video made available Wednesday by BP suggests that 70000 barrels a day are pouring into the Gulf, not 5000 barrels a day as estimated by the Coast Guard, the report says. If the analysis by Purdue University professor Steve Werely is correct, the amount of oil in the Gulf has already exceeded, every 4 days, the 250000 barrels spilled in the 1989 Exxon Valdez tanker accident in Alaska. The amount of oil spilling into the Gulf of Mexico may be at least 10 times the size of official estimates, according to an exclusive analysis conducted for NPR. At NPR’s request, experts examined video that BP released Wednesday. Their findings suggest the BP spill is already far larger than the 1989 Exxon Valdez accident in Alaska, which spilled at least 250000 barrels of oil. BP has said repeatedly that there is no reliable way to measure the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico by looking at the oil gushing out of the pipe. But scientists say there are actually many proven techniques for doing just that. Steven Wereley, an associate professor of mechanical engineering at Purdue University, analyzed

    This accident will cause more cancer than smokers do by themselfs. Oil is contaminate our foodchain. What does that mean? Smoke is going to be a healthy thing. Strange, isn`t it? But that`ll turn to our reality. All cleaners should be given weed for free, it helps against headace and all cancer instituitions should swap their mind and take a focus on our real cancerproducer.

    It’s a sorry state we are in. This disaster could prove to be the breaking point to bring in global government or the tipping point to raise public dissatisfaction with the fake economy & slave market system

    Analysis of sea floor video made available Wednesday by BP suggests that 70,000 barrels a day are pouring into the Gulf, not 5,000 barrels a day .
    The 1989 Exxon Valdez tanker accident in Alaska has spilled 250,000 barrels,
    so there has been spilled 1 exxon valdez amount per 4 days !!!!!!!!!!!!

    I blame this entire mess on the ENVIRONMENTALISTS. If they would have let us drill 500 feet from shore instead of 5 miles out where it’s over a mile deep, the problem could have been fixed long ago. THANK YOU ENVIRONMENTALISTS. Always screwing stuff up. Just let them drill near the shore so this kind of stuff won’t happen. IDIOTS.

    @satheeshactsinfo Planetresource(dot)net has a Eco friendly solution to clean up the tragedy British Petroleum has created
    One person can still make a difference in this world, is that simple interactions have a rippling effect. Each time this gets pass along, the hope in cleaning our planet is passed on .watch the youtube video title “COMPLETE CLEAN UP OF THE GULF SPILL” by? PRR7075

    It was caused because greedy dumb americans drive around in their big cars to get there mcDonalds so they can get a bit more obese, it would’nt even get on your sensationalist news channels if it where somewhere else around the world. And before you start on BP just remember that it was not british people working on the rig, it was Bubba and Jon-jo from texas. These guys are the ones that voted George Dubya Bush in not once but twice!! Then you let them on oil rigs!! Simple Fools!!!
