  • @SmarterNRealistic BTW Not everybody is old enough to own a car and I haven't heard of it happening in the UK you moron!!!!!

  • @KinoFourpaws Just build cars that have solar panels for a roof and then make it electric with a really,really small petrol or sterling generator to keep the batteries topped off in the EV over long journeys ;)

  • How do you all know that they didn't dump a glass of oil in that spot, Idiots

  • @SmarterNRealistic I know you're a moron...

  • @Uberdum05firealarm Lol, this just doesn't happen in Alaska! It happens everywhere there are people. Use YOUR brain, if you even have one. Farewell, moron.

  • @SmarterNRealistic Not all of us live near alaska.... use your brain....

  • they washed the oil into the ground the workers all got sick they kept the claims in court for decades and hardly anyone survived the fish showed 3 generations of deformaties it goes on and on and now bp is selling out in alaska taking their money elsewhere and mining gold! just in time to cancell a bunch of jobs and deny pensions! everytime you fill up at a bp gas station u support their crimes against the worl they along with arco own major solar energy tech that they keep suppressed!

  • The people who care enough to comment, should get off of their computer and help. You will feel a lot better about yourself, and it would solve the problem as well.

  • that is exactly what I have been trying to tell people is that unless the oil is physically removed from the environment it will be there forever.

  • @AlexanderIlli I was Pro-Obama, I am still Pro-Obama as long as his only competition is republican trash, but only because hes better than the other options.

    He claimed that he would take control of the situation with the military, that was weeks ago, he said it in a presidential address. Has he done so yet?
