Louisiana deep oil drilling disaster

[Peter Lemkin]

"Officials have now admitted that BP’s unstoppable oil leak may be pouring up to 2.5 million gallons a day into Gulf of Mexico." Hmmm.....It began on April 20...that makes about 36 days x 2.5 million gallons = about 90 million gallons - and they don't expect the relief well will be drilled before the end of the year....which would be about another 525 million gallons - for a total [if the leak doesn't increase, as many experts expect] = a total 'spill' of about 615.000.000 gallons [give or take a few]....nice move BP, Halliburton, USG, et al.... These figures I take as conservative - as they are probably still lying about the amount and it IS expected that the leaking oil will break the pipe further and increase its rate of flow....so I'd guessimate a billion gallons [4 billion liters]. :joyman: Add to that that BP has bought up and used about half of the world's supply of dispersant [which are as harmful / toxic - if not more so than the oil itself!]. Not much chance of the Gulf surviving as much more than a sewer for years to come. :dancing2:
