If you have that feeling of pulling out your hair and screaming about the Gulf oil spill you are not alone... BP has proven that money and greed rule the day. The greatest environmental disaster in American history could have been prevented by a $500,000.00 device that is mandatory in most civilized countries, but not in good ole oil lobbied USA. Thousands, perhaps millions of fish and wildlife will die. Marine ecosystems will be forever changed, but will it ever get us away from the cars we depend on.
We need to "top kill" big oil. It's time has come to an end. Can you see a windmill, or solar panel causing this much destruction? The talk that we are still years away from this technology is crap. Check it out yourself, there are many places that do not rely on oil. The problem is how much the US has invested in big oil. Without it, is unchartered waters (abeit oil-free).
But now is the time. We will be reminded that we need alternative energy systems, each time another dolphin washes up on the beach and the photos of the white sandy beaches of Florida covered in a black sheen.
