mourning in progress
I chanced upon this from my junior's tumblr and it is saddening:
That's just the daily count people and since the oil tanker has been spewing oil for 53 days already just imagine the amount of wildlife that has been harmed. Are we really so bent on killing off these precious species that are harmless to us; but are to bear the brunt of our acts of selfishness?
Moreover, the U.S. government has doubled its official estimate of the amount of oil spewing into the Gulf of Mexico (according to TIME magazine) and I don't think the apology from BP does justice to all the harm that this fiasco has created. It's been estimated that 9.5 million litres of oil is leaking into the ocean with no signs of it slowing down. What about all the millions of people living by the Gulf who depend on the ocean for their livelihood? What are they to do with the oil covered beaches? Something's gone wrong with the physical well-being of Mother Nature and this act of man only serves to perpetuate it.
_reading up about it just makes me feel so helpless and powerless
