I really really wish I can dump 75,000 barrels of oil per day on BP execs personal home and offices.

Maybe then they'd have the same urgency as they did when drilling that hole to begin with.

Nontheless, they fucked up hard. Thank god i'll be dead before the world is unliveable.

the oil sticks to the feathers and makes it hard to move pretty much paralyzing them. they cant hunt , loose body heat and freeze to death.

they dive in head first to catch fish. the birds dont know there is oil on top of the water.

Cuz birds cant just go to the grocery store to get their food... they actually catch it themselves!

because that where their home and food are.


Are you suggesting that the birds should fly to the arctic and live there instead for this time of the year?

Bird's can't read newspapers or browse the internet... they don't know there is an oil spill. It sucks if they are looking for food for their young and they can't return back to their nest to feed them.

They did that at the beginning. It worked very well but it was a permanent solution. With that much pressure coming out, its gonna be pretty hard to fix.

They should have just cope with it and make a rig with a really big funnel that sits in between the well and the rig. Suck all the oil including the water up. On the rig there is a filter system that filters out the water and keeps the oil. Water would be dumped back into the sea. It won't be 100% filtered but its better than this
