Seafarers must have one international standard licensure examination and don't just live that responsiblity to their flag states... because it's your states the pays for the damages...
this is not accident this is total careless and negligence!
Check The Captain's Licensing Authorithy (Liberia and Philippines) Check their examation system. Does it really test the competence of the Captain or just let him pass by chance?
There is no 'racing' happening here. Like the Gulf Oil spill in the East Pacific and Exxon Mobil Oil spill in the north Pacific, the oil spill in the South Pacific was an "accident". I wonder whether the nuclear contamination of the West Pacific ocean was an accident too.
Corexit 9500, four times more toxic than crude oil, is one of the most poisonous dispersants ever developed, and is up to 20 times more toxic than other dispersants, and only half as effective. When Corexit 9500, with its 2.61 ppm toxicity level, is combined with the warm waters of the Gulf much of it will transition into a gaseous state that will be absorbed into clouds, to be released as toxic rain!
The US/EPA recently issued permits moving oil giant Shell (the black plague) 1 step closer to drilling Chukchi & Beaufort Seas of the Arctic. The booming noise from drilling is so loud & confusing, it could lead polar bear moms to abandon their cubs. Alone & starving, a baby polar bear would repeatedly go into convulsions from the below-zero cold on its slow march to death. Drilling in the Arctic ocean is another Gulf of Mexico oil disaster waiting to happen. Bring back the EV-1 electric car!

@Ameer18 - I don't think those people are 100% human, just can't be. Either that or the sickness of greed is beyond reason and sanity.

COREXIT IS WHAT THEY ARE SPRAYING!
IT IS VERY TOXIC! They spray it to hide the oil like BP did in the Gulf!
Corexit is BANNED in Europe for that reason!
