“It’s a very large mass that is viscous but hasn’t coalesced into tar mats yet,” Barham said.

I just watched the second political debacle tonight.
Everythings gonna be fine according to them, if you pick the right one…
I see these headlines, with the creatures occupying these places, in their last breaths of life.
Everythings gonna be fine if we just get the people back to work…
Epic mass animal deaths, whole regions contaminated forever.
Not one individual in power has earned the right to be a sheperd of mother earth, not one.
The masses following hold up their banners and wave at their idols…
Meanwhile the world is burning, and no one is there to help mother earth put it out.

"If any of it is connected to the Deepwater Horizon accident, BP stands ready to remove it…"
Yeah, sure. Lets sit around pointing fingers instead of taking action.

BP has pulled their 'happy gulf' tv ad showing beachgoers, swimmers and fishermen enjoying life back to normal – just as airlines pull their advertising for several weeks following a major air crash disaster.

FORGET Bp COREXIT ITS POISON DOES NOT WORK ALL it did was sink the oil from the surface and it is a poison its out lawed in England for health concerns. It is deadly and has made people sick and is in their blood tests from Texas to Florida.
people getting weird diseases and lesions
Texas A&M developed a bacteria that actually ate oil and left over was co-2 gas which plants breathe in to make oxygen, AND NOW LETS NOT SCREAM CO-2 is bad.
In the last 5 to 12 years plants have grown taller more healthier and have been on the planet as long as man has and maybe more. Plants have to have co-2 or thy die and the people screaming it is global warming only has to search and see it is the sun that is the power for warming. The melting of the ice cap is between Russia and the USA wit HARRP where they are screwing the weather up on the planet do some research

@Markww , If by some miracle toxic mankind was to dissapear overnight without a trace of poisson or buildings left behind except the increased CO2levels , yes , plantlife (all life) would explode .
Oxigen levels would start to rise again and CO2 would be put back in to the ground where it was in a relative short time planetairy speaking.
Unfortunatly , we are one of the few species that has a population explosion and global deforestation thanks to mankind is way, way faster then the growspeed of anything on this planet. The killing off speed of the oceans ditto.. Leaving only one place for the co2 to go , in the atmosphere , clogging the planetairy heatsystem. Cumulated with the altered heat reflexion properties of the globe itself by deforestation and desertification and dissapearing of reflective snow and ice fields, tectonic activity etc ; EVER FASTER DEVELOPING MANMADE GLOBAL WARMING End of story.

Would be nice if only the "toxic effect of our species ego delirium" would dissapear overnight , the clear-eyed good guy's can stay and help the planet with our brainpowers and technology to heal itself , a new relationship , aaah , one can only dream…or…maybe soon…, a mentality shift ?

Something just crossed my mind , i never saw somebody mention what extra CO2 releases has to be expected as a result of the radiation of the ocean's …Something to add to the list of tunnels…

@Markww , pls scratch that "End of story comment" from your memory , it was rude and uncalled for, didden't fully realise or cared for detail at the time. It was more my general attitude against all the suffocating naysayers at once that slipped in , not to you personally !
I value your opinions and idea's just the same, and look forward to read more of it.

So…where is this viscous mass coming from?
Viscous implies..fresh oil.

How easy the masses find environmental pollution by the energy/chemical industry.

No such thing as a "far from my bed show" on this small marble , ONE GLOBE , ONE FAITH and every action or tought or opinion or revelation, no matter how big or small , is a working dynamic in determing the outcome off all this ! Everything is connected , LITERALLY !
