Above is a video that provides evidence that supports what many scientist have been saying all along; Corexit was the wrong move. For months, the Federal government and BP used the dispersement Corexit to ‘help’ in the clean efforts of the BP Oil Spill the Gulf of Mexico.

This video provides the visual evidence that suggest that Corexit simply made the Oil Spill worse than it originally was. There is a reason Oil and water don’t mix. The only way for this to occur is by chemcial alteration; Corexit.

For further explanation and visual representation as to explain the mentality behind such an argument, we invite you to view the YouTube video above.

Traversing miles under the surface, far beneath the sunlight, are vast amounts of oil that have mixed in with the Seabed. Many fear that with the Oil remaining at such depths, it will be some time before the waters of the Gulf recover.

Below is the article that discusses the findings as well as the scientists’ discoveries.

One fisherman was quoted as saying, “Everyone thinks this is over, but it’s not…”

Even though these results have been provided to State and Federal agencies, these agencies still persist that nothing is wrong with the Air Quality or Water Quality. The EPA continously states that these readings aren’t concrete evidence that proves anything even though the results were found by their own testing machines.

Below is a link to an article explaining what symptoms people along the Gulf Coast are experiencing and the scientific evidence that is being covered up by local, state and federal agencies in order to preserve what little credibility and security remains in these areas that have been so ravaged by disasters in the past years.

After the BP Oil Spill on April 20, 2010 that killed 11 crew members aboard the Deepwater Horizon, the Gulf seafood, specifically the Shrimping industry, has fallen out. No one wants to buy supposed contaminated seafood or be the ones selling the contaminated food, fearing legal repercussions.

The State of Louisiana has requested that BP help the shrimping market buy paying a preimium at the docks for shrimpers products to help the seafood market rebound to where it once was. Currently, a pound of shrimp is going in some places as low as 80 cents a pound. With these prices, many shrimpers can not afford to continue their fishing trips sighting losses rather than breaking even much less a profit.

Below is an article from MSN explaining the current situation that many Gulf Shrimpers face.

Though results released by the state and local governments have all be deemed safe, it is still questioned by many of the fisherman and keynote speakers that were also in attendance at this meeting held Wednesday in Biloxi, MS.

One scientist, Riki Ott, who is a marine toxicologist clearly called for further testing in the waters throughout the Gulf region. With her experience as a former Salmon fisherman in Alaska who was witness to the Exxon Valdez disaster, she was very critical of the agencies predictions and results that continue to advise people that the seafood and waters are safe for human consumption.

Below is the article from The Sun Herald outlining the meeting and the various topics discussed.

Though this investigation is enlightening, it is noteworthy that this is an internal BP investigation where much of the blame is placed on other corporations and parts of the puzzle. These claims that others were at fault give some insight into the possible legal defense that will be used by BP in the coming months as they go through both criminal and civil proceedings.

There is no one single entity that was in charge on the Deepwater Horizon, all pointing the superior figure at one another. The frustration in the panelists’ can be understood herein this article.

Though no oil was noticeable on the oysters, high levels of hydrocarbons were detected within the various animal species tested. DHH officials have said that “minute levels have been detected” and “what we have found is extremely low [amounts].”

Due to the weak currents at the depths the oil and gas remain, the plume is expected to persist an estimated time of two years. With this plume, oxygen levels in the Gulf are expected to decrease to dead zone levels. These dead zones cause loss of animal life and prohibit any life from living in those zones.

In addition, this article from Discovery News challenges the findings that oil eating bateria are speeding up the degredation of oil in the Gulf. Scientist truly don’t know the amount of bacteria that exist in the plume and can not accurately predict an “end” date to this disaster.
