  • Someone finally has a solution... Look up Wetland Skimmers LLC Marsh Mop on youtube!

  • the problem is oil consumption. Supply and demand. That's you and me. Stop blaming BP. We're all guilty. If you live in a major city then use public transportations.

    For every full bus , there's 50 less cars/suvs offf the road. Less trafic, less polution, less stress, less noise, less deaths, more life.

  • There are only 3 Health Insurance companies, 4 food companies, 5 oil companies, 6 banks, 3 Television conglomerates and 3 radio enterprises our military is the largest group of anything in the world. Stop to big to fail monopolies!!!!!

  • The Venus project has spent over 4 decades working on the solutions to these problems.......please check it out and support. Aren't you tired of supporting this insane economic system?

  • I love the point he ends on. What if... we could really actually... not have to rely on oil any more. I know it sounds like a fantasy would but it could be potentially cheaper if there was an alternative and that's not to mention it would prevent things like this happening again.

  • theres only one solution now. this unstoppable leak must be perpetually siphoned onto tanker ships till the end of time. unless by some miracle this hole is plugged.

  • This is a disgrace. Shame on those responsible for this..

  • These are truly disturbing images. Is there any way to save the wetlands and the people of the region?

  • whre can we get the reports on ship-source oil pollution?
