Re: Is this the Solution to the Gulf Oil Spill?

The link you provided only shows a list of videos. I didn't see any about the oil spill.

If you were referring to the rig that is being lowered over the oil leak underwater, that will supress only ONE leak if it works right (there are MULTIPLE leaks). If it does work at all, it will take weeks or even months to cover the other leaks (because they never tried it before, construction of the other rigs will take time).

Meanwhile, Atlantic Hurricane Season is only three weeks away. "Oil Rain" will DEFINITELY be a health hazard, not just for people with respiratory problems, but EVERYONE...and also an agricultural problem. It will also clog machinery such as generators, etc., probably be a fire hazard with the strong summer sun, and vehicles will slip and slide on the roads.

I don't really see much of a solution happening.

Buy face masks and goggles. Save up uncontaminated food and get some fire extinguishers (I bought some from K-Mart that are just spray cans $15.00 that are good on oil/grease, wood, and electricity...made by "First Alert").

The oil spill problem is not going to go away. Hurricane Season will make it worse.

The volcano in Iceland is AGAIN putting more volcanic ash in the atmosphere. If that flows south to the U.S. in Hurricane Season, that could also add to the environmental problems in the U.S. It could block out the sun and cause a "Volcanic Winter" (MORE storms, stronger). If the ash falls to the ground ("ashfall deposit"), there will be MORE breathing problems (these days, the environmental problems only seem to be getting worse)....DEFINITELY buy masks and goggles.

"SOLUTION" you say....if it's not one thing, it's another.

I'd still be interested in that video if you could find it.
