BP Deepwater Horizon disaster was very predictable. 38 similar blowouts have happened since Dick Cheney became the CEO of Halliburton in 1995. As USVP, Cheney’s secret oil industry energy task force agreed to relax safety standards for drilling and for MMS permit approvals. Corrupt politicians and government agencies that approve high-risk fossil fuel operations are bought and paid for by bribes from fossil fuel lobbyists. President Obama: “I will work with my colleagues at the G-20 to phase out fossil fuel subsidies so that we can better address our climate challenge.” This video is a musical parody about insane political and greedy-corporate destruction of our delicate environment It was created to be a stark contrast prelude to our Zero Energy Design® “how to” video: ZERO EMISSIONS NEVER BURN ANYTHING Part 1 – Abundant Energy In Harmony With Nature® – Please enjoy this and our many other zeroenergydesign channel videos.

We’re being told that yes, this is an atrocity, but we still need that oil at the bottom of the sea floor. Mike Papantonio appears on MSNBC’s The Ed Show to take on the offshore drilling cheerleaders, as well as explain the basics of his class action suit against BP. Video Rating: 5 / 5
