Destroying our environment......





"Lesions in the lungs and shrunken adrenal glands distinguish dolphins that washed up dead in the Gulf of Mexico between June 2010 and December 2012 compared with those found in beachings elsewhere. As a result, researchers have linked the mass deaths to BP's oil spill."
 

New autopsy results confirm mass dolphin strandings largely stemmed from BP's 2010 Macondo well blowout

BREAKING. Internal documents from BP show they would have to bring equipment from Texas to contain an oil spill off the South Australian coastline.

BP have prop...osed to drill four exploratory deep sea wells in a whale sanctuary off the Great Australian Bight. These wild and pristine waters are the nursery for southern right whales and their mums before they make their way down to Antarctica for summer.

This report concedes that here in South Australia, in the event of a disaster, a second rig would be positioned to drill a “relief” well, which would take 157 days, BP says. 157 DAYS.

In comparison, the Deep Horizon Spill in the Gulf of Mexico couldn’t be contained for 87 days – the havoc and the devastation of the spill is still being felt, five years on.

Pete Owen, the head of the Wilderness Society South Australia office said BP’s attempts to drill the Bight were not right.

“Of all the places to be turning into an oil field, the Great Australian Bight is not it. This is akin to what Shell is trying to do in the Arctic – it’s utterly inappropriate.”
