Hopefully, the magnitude of this ongoing
disaster will become clearer before BP
is allowed to sign off on their liability.
Hopefully, the outcry, and continuing effort
to raise awareness of the health concerns
will also be forthcoming. This discovery,
in my opinion, is just the beginning of
what will become a stream of reports that,
the oil has been "found"~~
Oil on seafloor heading east, researchers worry toxic crude will resurface
According to CNN‘s report ‘Plumes of Gulf oil spreading east on sea floor,’ University of South Florida researchers found oil on the seafloor “all along their way” during a 10-day mission that did not come within 25 miles of the BP blowout.
Scientists are now suggesting that the naturally occurring microbes are not be able to breakdown the oil as anticipated. The crude is breaking down “much slower” than was originally thought.
CNN adds, “The oil could well up onto the continental shelf and resurface later, according to researchers.”
Perhaps this is why weeks after the well was ‘capped’, researchers from the National Aquarium and Johns Hopkins University traveled to Southwest Florida to perform sampling of Gulf waters: Top scientists testing Sarasota Bay to evaluate HUMAN “bioaccumulation” and “long-term natural resource damages” from oil disaster
