Statements by US officials to the contrary notwithstanding, BP is still making operational decisions in the Gulf relief effort, and the consequences are disastrous.

Who said burning the oil was a solution? Spreading toxic smoke all around the globe is a good solution? Destroying huge areas of living ocean by fire is a solution?? These floating booms don't seem to be working either except to trap marine life - the oil is showing up on beaches and in marshes. Who said it was a good solution to ruin of miles of the most beautiful beaches on earth... or to ruin the health and livelihood of the human population of the Gulf of Mexico...? Isn't somebody at BP smarter than this??? I'm not talking about Bambi sentimentalism. These dolphins and sea turtles are the canaries in the coal mine - if they can't breathe, soon it will be us who can't breathe! Stop this "crisis as entertainment" craziness and put all your resources into stopping the oil leak now!!!
For the sakes of looting vital resources throughout the world, mankind is on the last leg of destroying himself. That, perhaps, is the legacy, especially the USA, will leave for future generations to ponder. That is, if there will be a future generation.
Our hearts cry for those millions of innocent sea and land creature that have perished and will perished because of corporate greed.
I dare say tha of all the living species on the planet, mankind is the only one that truly merits extinction!
