Unless you made a conscious effort to insulate themselves from any and all means, you probably know a significant leak of oil from the deep sea and the horizon in the Gulf of Mexico off the southeast coast of the United States. An oil well located in the Gulf has blown and the oil is thrown from it by an amount of 35,000 to 60,000 barrels per day. Spoilers have been sent to the site of oil spill in the Gulf and catches are approximately 10,000 barrels per day. Even those who have chosen professions outside the world of mathematics can do the math to see that cleaning is now a losing battle.

Perhaps the most irritating aspect of the oil spill theGulf is that it is almost identical in the nature of the oil spill caused by a oil platform explosion in 1979, and exactly the same effort that does not work more than 30 years to stop the flow of oil are used Now! All methods leave chemicals in the air to try to overthrow a plug with a low-tech metal cap ones are still the order correct inaccurate results. How does it not make sense progress has been made in preventive or remedial technologies over the past 30 years? A more important question is why a planet, we have continued to cling to petroleum fuel sources instead of developing renewable energy sources to avoid such disasters, such as the Gulf spills that occur?

In proposing the horizon in the deep waters, and BP said with confidence that, although unlikely that a spill occurred, the microbes found in water rapidly degrade oil and common components disperse the remaining oil levels ineffective. The mechanisms behind these statements are true. But what happens when microbes begin to separate oil, or any type of material used for food? They use oxygen. The enormous amount of oxygen consumed by microbes in the treatment of the large amount of oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico could affect fish and marine life that live in its waters. If these animals die a result, the food chain would suffer a blow. In addition, natural gas released at the same time with the oil reduces oxygen levels and transport toxic materials such as benzene, creating a double blow to the waters and animals in the Gulf of Mexico.

Engineers really The right of BP in evaluating currents in the Gulf of Mexico could be the result of an oil spill. Unfortunately, the currently prevailing in these waters is the current Gulf. As the Gulf Stream flows from the Gulf, which moves from the eastern seaboard of the United States. Even if the oil spill does not the coast, the projected amounts of plants and marine animals are affected. Once the Gulf Stream has recently followed the U.S. east coast, which emits in the Atlantic Ocean to Europe. I'm not ready to call it a planet killer this disaster yet, but it is not difficult to imagine the overall impact economically and environmentally, if the oil spill reached theGulf beyond its borders and significant.

Fishing industries have already felt the blow caused by the oil spill theGulf. 86, 985 square miles of water available has been closed This represents approximately 36% of federal waters. While about 60-70 per cent of the dollar oysters and crab harvesting areas and 70-80 percent of the fishing Tuna continued operation, initial estimates predicted estimated cost of 2.5 billion dollars to the fishing industry. Tourism much of the region's economy has been greatly reduced, which could be costing the industry $ 3 billion dollars.

Lest we forget, BP lost money with a shovel because of the oil spill in the Gulf. In a few days before writing that BP had already incurred expenses of $ 2.35 billion. When all is said and done, the expenses for any drilling Back to the containment of cleaning Credits can reach over 30 billion dollars. Since April, BP has already lost 105 billion dollars U.S.. Who pays the bill, inevitably, increasing the large companies are losing share value and profits? Why, of course the customer. Customers worldwide are already enslaved to the idea gallons of gasoline There are three or four times the current price.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Health concerns and issues have not been in anything, so the impact is felt in these regions has not yet been seen. Renewable energy sources based on data readily available, should be removed 5000 feet below the surface of the ocean. The research, development, installation and the cost of all renewable energies combined does not exceed the costs Supported by the oil spill in the Gulf. And neither quiet hum of a fuel cell and a slowly rotating blades of wind roared over more stronger than the effects of being heard in the Gulf of Mexico.
