Antonia Juhasz, Global Exchange Energy Program Director and author of Black Tide: the Devastating Impact of the Gulf Oil Spill (Wiley, April 2011) speaks truth to power at the BP AGM on April 14.
Despite attempts to quieten her and the deliberate exclusion of Gulf coast fishermen whose livelihoods have been devastated by the spill, she managed to speak about the ongoing impact of the man-made tragedy, and to read out a statement by Keith Jones, the father of Gordon Jones, one of the workers whose life was lost on the rig.
...is he also going to read out the names of all the animals who were killed as a result of the spill.
the way this guy is disputing the amount of oil that was spilled into the gulf, near the end of this clip, reminds me of the way holocaust deniers dispute the amount of people sent to the gas chambers in WWII. can't we all just agree that it was enough to seriously fuck up the environment for many, many years to come?
