What is the government here to do? To serve the people, to protect us, to look out for the best interest of the nation. Not to withhold inside information from the American people in order to protect their corporate interest, especialy when our lives depend on it but, that's exactly what they're doing.
Do you know what the largest enviromental concern is in the gulf? The massive oil leak killing the wildlife, right? WRONG! The oil coming out is not the greatest danger, it's what's coming out with it that oil that poses the greatest threat. What I'm talking about is causing the death of humans and unborn babies as we speak. We already know of the workers that are getting sick, witch BP and other claims is the effect of the toxic dispursents.
BP and the government is covering up what should be a natinal alert to help the citizens protect themselves and their family but, this is not at all what's happening. Much like when the air quality was declared safe for clean up after 9/11 2001 the volenteers assumed they were fine to help in the cleanup effort. 10 years later, there are over 56,000 volenteers who came down with - most have either died or are sick and can't get any help with treatment
from the government.
The oil gusher in the gulf is much worse then you may have heard. It's not just crude oil coming up, oh no, there's a whole lot more to it than that. There are chemicals and air born VOC's that are so lethal, you will want to tell everyone you know after you read this.
What BP has done, is drilled a "super deep well". This has already been done by Russia, drilling over 320 wells at a depth of 40,000 feet but, Russia done it on land, where did BP do it? In 5,000 feet of water. This is the first time a "super deep well" has been tried in water, needless to say, this should've never been allowed to take place in the first place.
When Russia drilled their "super deep well" they discovered the crude that was coming out was not like regular crude, it was much more toxic. The oil from a super deep well is not fossil fuel, it's called abiotic oil witch occurs from a chemical process that happens deep in the heart of the earth. The toxic VOC's "volitale organic compounds" given off by the abiotic oil are very deadly, mush more toxic than clean oil or "sweet crude". BP and the whitehouse are acting like this is regular crude oil, IT'S NOT!
VOC chemicals of this Abiotic oil include:
hydrogen sulfide: Acording to the EPA the allowable levels of hydrogen sulfide is 5 to 10 ppb parts per billion, tested levels on the gulf coast, 1200 ppb
Benzine: Allowable levels 0 to 4 ppb. Current levels in the gulf according to the EPA ,is 3,000 ppb. Exposure to low levels can cause dizziness drowsiness headacghes confusin headachs tremmors rapid heartbeat unconsiusness long term exposure bone marrow lead and lead to blodd pro like lekeimea weaken immune system targets oragns like kindeys lung sbrain
Methylene chloride: Allowable levels 61 ppb. Current levels in the gulf 3,000 to 3400 ppb
Sources: EPA reports/Lindsey Williams
Exposure to even low levels of these toxins can cause dizziness, drowsiness, headaches, confusion; tremmors, rapid heartbeat, and more. long term exposure can damage bone marrow, lead to blood problems like leukemia, weaken the immune system, and target organs like the kindeys, lungs, and brain
The people of the gulf states should be made aware of these deadly VOC's but, it appears BP and president Obama is afraid to release more bad news, even if it puts US citizens in direct danger.
The US Government is just as much at fault as BP is for allowing them to drill the well. The 35,000 feet super deep well was the first to be drilled in water. The blowout that occured was a result of the massive pressure that occurs 30,000 feet in the heart of the earth. The pressure
paintfly
was so great it exceeded our current technology to contatin it. To put in perspective of how much pressure were talkin about, the normal psi (pounds per square inch) for an oil well is 1500 psi, the estimated psi recorded on the deep water horizon, between 20,000 -70,000 psi. Basicaly the catostrophic pressure that was achieved drilling this super deep well exceeded all of our current technology to contain it.
The media has already reported the amount of oil coming out of the gulf floor could reach as much as 4 million gallons per day but, inside sources say that number has already been achieved , and they say that's a conservative number. It's no suprise, the figures started at 5,000 barrels, then 5,000 gallons, then 20,000 then they said 100,000 and on and on and on and on.
It is vital that you relay this information to anyone you know who plans to go to the gulf, even as far as the Florida coast these levels of airborne toxins are being reported. We must rally the EPA and the media to take this information public. The people working on the clean up should atleast be made aware of this, so as they can take the proper precautions to protect themselves.
