Best reporting I've seen on the gulf disaster. We have to know, sickening as it is, we have to know what's happening to begin to fix it. Good honest reporting is the only way us "small" people will know the truth. Please continue and do more on this. The world needs to know what oil is doing to us.

Watch this, then watch "GASLAND' about natural gas drilling and 'fracking' all over the country threatening water supplies and making people and animals sick. Then watch Jon Stewart's interview of the man who made the documentary. terrifying. I almost cussed a man who was buying a case of bottled water at the supermarket today. Bottles made of petroleum and giving the notion that water is a commodity rather than a right.

GASLAND is a crock. It wasn't natural gas drilling or fracing that caused the incidents in that mockumentary. http://www.anga.us/the-truth-about-gasland/

This summer we started hanging our clothes out to dry. We use only cold water to wash clothes. We started using glass jars to store leftovers instead of plastic wrap.

Cutting down our dependency on oil in small steps is one way to save this beautiful blue ball hurling around the sun.

I know of no other substance on earth that is so heavily used, in so many ways - almost everything we buy and do. Even our wars.
