Source at www.whatdoesitmean.com (Note: I am not sure how trusty this source is but the concept seems logical that oil and the corexit 9500 would indeed be swept up in a hurricane (just as water does) and then be dumped inland. The effects of being dumped on cropland and others are unknown. I can assure you that this corexit is toxic and kills sealife (check the scientific paper) . Never in history has so much oil and this corexit have ever been used and never in an hurricane making zone, so this cannot be dismissed). “A dire report prepared for President Medvedev by Russias Ministry of Natural Resources is warning today that the British Petroleum (BP) oil and gas leak in the Gulf of Mexico is about to become the worst environmental catastrophe in all of human history threatening the entire eastern half of the North American continent with total destruction.

This is the second part of a video montage of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. At the time I am uploading this video, the spill is 1/4 in size of New England, and growing daily. And growing fast.

It is now time to act! The music I chose is “Nearer My God To Thee”. Like the other ocean disaster, the Titanic, the Gulf is going down. God gave us this beautiful planet and we fucked it up. I don’t blame Him if He took it back Way to go BP! Video Rating: 5 / 5
