BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Images: Coast Coast, Fish, Florida In Growing Danger


Written by: Stephen Sabludowsky


Buzz Right Back----E-Mail a Friend----Print Page


For weeks, many of us have waited for the evidence of the Deepwater Horizon BP oil spill upon the coast of Louisiana and the gulf coast.  During this period, the focus has been on the Pelican State with the talk of the projection destruction to the seafood, recreation and tourist industries. 

Some have questioned whether it was all smoke and oil and nothing else.   

We have seen pictures of Tar balls on our beaches, and birds encased in oil.   

Now, there is growing evidence that the oil is floating to the southern Gulf Coast and the slick could be targeting more of the southern gulf coast including the white beaches of Florida.    

I sadly predict the horrors, the economic and the political chaos is about to begin.

Take a look:

The following is a May 17 satellite picture taken by NASA showing...
The BP oil spill image off the coast of Louisiana spreading from the delta to the Southeast.








 

According to NASA, its “Terra Terra satellite captured a visible satellite image of the Gulf oil spill on May 17 at 16:40 UTC (12:40 p.m. EDT) from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Instrument on-board. The oil slick appears as a dull gray on the water's surface and stretches south from the Mississippi Delta with what looks like a tail.”

 Then, there are these raw images of dead fish found north of the Palm Beach Florida coast found today. 

 

  

 

Just part of the political fallout..

There is no reason to sugar-coat this disaster. It is obvious to any thinking person that it s worse than is reported. Being a Venice regular, I know how biologically sensitive the area is. If it gets into the stream, it will cause less damage. The Louisiana Delta is vital to America, and I for one would rather clean oil and tar off the beaches than have the nesting and fertile areas of Louisiana damaged, killing millions of many species of birds and fish and wiping out whole industries. Besides, when the millionaires and movie stars and such are threatened in Fla, we'll solve the problem.

The "best case scenario" would be IF BP can stop the well from flowing, and IF the oil stays - mostly - offshore allowing it to be captured; even then, this will be a horrible ecological disaster. Still no need to stop offshore production (that sentiment has nothing to do with my working out here either) or artificially increase the prices consumers pay for hydrocarbon fuel to offset the higher costs of 'alternative' fuels. I feel most sorry for shrimpers and fisherman whose incomes are harmed by this accident.

Just because you don't see the damage doesn't mean it isn't there.

I hope you're right KL; but I fear it may be a case of "it's not that bad - YET."

Oh, Predictor of Doom, nobody takes this oil spill lightly. Truth is- it's not as bad as we thought. If "that much" oil was "gushing" from the ocean-floor the Sea would be bubbling up. (leak is not a gusher- more like a slow leak, but still an environmental disaster, nobody is debating). Big question is---Where did the oil go? Now there's evidence of underwater plumes. Follow that. But, save your crying Wolf.
