what doyou think about Gulf oil spill? should we boycott BP?
With the complete loss of oceanic life, be it plants or wildlife, happening over in the gulf coast i find it hard to believe anyone would support BP especially since it was released that they had several citations regarding the safety of that particular location that spanned over a few years. Harbors that once not long ago were thriving with fishermen is now silent. Peoples livelihood not to mention has completely gone down the drain. They have to date tried to put heavy mud over the pipe, they have tried to plug it with other various materials and they will be trying a dome like structure to stop the huge flow of oil into our water. Boycotting BP is not enough in my opinion, we should sue them so broke the executive of the company are forced to work in the clean up effort just to pay their court fees.Now because of them in the very near future i will be highway robbed at the gas pump when i have to fill up.

This will have far reaching affects. It has been devastating for the fishermen but also could be devastating to the places that rely on the tourists in the winter; places with white sand beaches and crystal clear water. From what I read today the oil is getting dangerously close to the panhandle of Florida and they are becoming very worried about their water and beaches. It could also harm the beautiful coral reefs.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. It's all the big shots in the company that make the decisions. They should be the ones to pay. It's so ridiculous that they can call it an accident and not be held accountable. I read that the BP chief executive Tony Hayward made his first trip to the Gulf 39 days after the spill happened.Why would it take him so long to get involved?
