The Deepwater Horizon Accident: What Happened and Why?

[MiyakeJaydee]

Anyone here, who can explain in a short way, what exactly happen? just in layman term though... im just a curious fellow...

Your Video Is Very Useful Sharing Roland Horne begins the first of a series of two lectures with an overview of what led to the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon offshore drilling rig

very long video.

This channel is far more informative than other channels. It should have high ranking.

Corporate Greed = Greed + Fear + Being Lax + Cost Cutting = Getting Fucked.

does anyone have the power point file he used for the presentation? Id like to get a close look at some of the slides since the resolution can be low on youtube.

[adangodinez99]

this is a better explication about this....

[ShaggyShagz13]

Geothermal, solar, wave and current, and wind power. All are safe and better than using non-renewable and polluting fuels.

Agreed

this is the best channel on yt, not saying much, but it's really good even on a better scale than yt offers.

Why not just research fusion? Acquiring Hydrogen is not hard at all. The problem is containing the chemical reaction from what I have heard.

[kkonstantinosss2]

@davidthefat No, the problem is not in the controlling of either the chemical making of hydrogen tritium and deuterium neither in fusing it with laser or magnetic fields. The problem is making the process EFFECTIVE. It will take many years until the problems regarding nuclear fusion are solved. I love nuclear fusion. I wish we had it ready. The world needs 2 inventions now. The space elevator with nanotubes and hydrogen fusion power plants!

[dorbie]

@davidthefat That's not a chemical raction, the problem is initiating the nuclear reaction and containing it.

[sacredgeometry]

@davidthefat because then how will 1% of the world retain power over the rest of us?

[pyrrho314]

@davidthefat : oddly enough, even as an environmentalist... there is good reason to look even to fission for power... it would be bad to do for centuries, but to get us from oil to more sustainable sources with less toxic waste would probably be a lot greener than getting there on gas and oil it seems. However, the main solution is don't let a bunch of greedy assholes run whatever it is you do use to get massive amounts of energy.

[Ishidasouken]

@davidthefat the ONLY reason fusion isn't sufficiently researched, is that the established oil industry want to stay rich and keep sucking oil out of the planet, until there is no drop left.

Humans only choose the most intelligent option, if all other options are out.

there is no "problem" researching fusion. if the money made with oil would flow proportional into fusion research, we would have it in no time.

we know its possible - so, its just a matter of funding research

[shintsu01]

@davidthefat we are already doing that the first commercial feasible concept reactor is currently being build. go look for ITER the idea is to make a fusion reactor large enough to get a net result out of it. because right now we use more energy to keep the reaction running then we can get out of it.

an other problem is how to get the energy out of the reaction.

if we want a quick greener tech we need to develop thorium reactors for the short run and rely on fusion after a 100 years or so

Nice.
