As if the dispersants themselves weren't toxic enough, the 1.8 million gallons of Corexit 9500 (oil dispersant) sprayed on BP's spill in the Gulf of Mexico breaks down the oil, releasing some of the most toxic chemicals already in the oil into the water, dramatically increasing the toxicity of the spill.

  • This dispersant 9500 could also be a fake, read the Datasheet from corexit 9527a

  • @bimblinghill finally. all we need now is some purple chemtrails and some haarp testing. maybe we can create the end even before 2012

  • BP will never pay for killing all the marine life and eventual human lives. BP has already began hiring academics so the Federal Government can't call them as witnesses when they start being hauled into court. Just like the apology Texas Republican Senator Joe Barton had given BP, his party will shield them from any real consequences of their carelessness. As long as the oil is hidden from sight from the aid of corexit, the Republican led media machine will say it's simply all gone.

  • Corexit works as a dishwasher to oil. But Corexit = Core Exit = Corpus Exitus

    It is doing what it says. Google Corexit 9500 and 9527a read those sheets and think about it. Now an evacuation is not useful. It is in our atmosphere.

  • They are acting as if the system is working properly and correcting its mistakes, whereas it was obvious from the start that the corexit dispersant was a bad idea. But we all share responsibility for the shallow thinking of "out of sight, out of mind", and the corrupt governmental institutions that allowed BP to do things to avoid its legal liability..because they make political contributions. And with Obama, it was all about the economy, he didn't mention the environment for days.

  • Great. We're conducting another massive uncontrolled experiment with the world.
