wow. I sure hope wutever solution they have worked. It's gonna take decades to clean up. Question tho. Oil floats on water, so bottom dwellers will be ok right?

It is an entire ecosystem that is affected. Nothing goes unscathed.
Invisible sky daddies commanding people to do shit is just so beyond retarded, I feel like punching myself in the balls until I shit my computer chair.

I don't understand how we haven't figured out a better way of moving oil and/ or preventing this shit from happening yet.. We're killing ourselves with oil, plastic and greed.
Are we going to learn from this.. fuck no. Was it worth the risk to make the money, hell ya. I hope the next wave of young people are smarter and not money driven!
Hindsight is no excuse for this kind of shit EVERYTHING fails at some point and then what. Do they hope for "divine intervention".
I just think its stupid that our governments locally and globally that have so many energy alternatives at their fingertips don't switch up to one more responsible. Sustainability isn't even an issue its just plain old responsibility.
Our governments are more addicted to oil (Read revenue) then us consumers are. we are just the sheep following the herd and using whats given to us. If thats gas and diesel then so be it but there is no reason why it cant be something responsible.
I for one would love to see a corn oil spill in Saskatchewan on the news then another tanker runs aground or oil rig explodes off the coast of......

Can they build some kind of sarcophagus? Maybe with some kinda
'removable' top? Man this is really hard to watch.
Goodluck to the engineer's next idea. Deepest prayers go out to
a working solution. Posted via RS Mobile
I seriously doubt BP is actually making their best effort in solving this problem. Accountants r counting pennies and try to use as little money as possible. And at the end it cost them WAY more than it should have been. I thot Obama said they'r taking over if BP continues to fail. It's time for someone else to take charge. Money shouldn't even be an issue anymore. If we dun fix it, everbody is fucked. Posted via RS Mobile

This is what I don't understand. This is a problem that doesn't just affect the US, but that whole part of the world...the oil will spread for thousands of miles.
If they REALLY wanted to stop it, they would. Put it this way: if aliens came to earth and started attacking the planet, every country would drop everything, pitch in and figure out how to get rid of the aliens.
This spill is becoming a HUGE environmental risk. The pic of the dolphin is ONE dolphin that they found...there are millions of lifeforms dying everyday in the gulf, and because we can't see it, it's like it doesn't matter as much. It's true we still have much to learn about the ocean, but we do know how VITAL it is to the survival of Earth. If other countries realized how big of an issue this is, they would pitch in to solve it.

the animals that are deep enough would probably get off without any harm (i'm just assuming)
but the damage that the oil is doing isn't only screwing the animals on the surface for sure. when you put cooking oil in a pot, most of it stays on the surface until the water churns a bit and then it starts spreading all around. i'm guessing it's the same thing with regular oil, and that the animals up to mid ocean depth are getting harmed too

yes its deep and there might not be animals at that depth but the oil rises and destroys everything. I just hope this get's stopped before a big hurricane. Once that happens it's honestly over and it will get dragged all up the east coast.
Now lobster hot pot for hyde this year if that happens
