- Nothing changes in what we do.
- Everything we change affects something else.
- the residue and the leaves
- dried water hanging out to dry
- water run off and where does it drain
- oil rain these days
Why are we not learning from our mistakes???? I guess us Homosapiens think we are invisible or something. I know, I know...we all grow our own food and dont need our little iphones. We cut down trees as quick as we print on paper...who cares. The bees are devastated because their forest is cut down and we kill the bees, one of the most important species on this planet for pollination. We are arrogant and we like our dollar bills and we want them to be bigger and bigger....Suck on this:
The cleanup efforts or EXXON VALDEZ and natural processes, particularly in the winter, cleaned the oil out of the top 2-3 inches, where oxygen and water can flow," the council said, "but did little to affect the large patches of oil farther below the surface."

More marine mammals and birds died than in any other oil spill. Some populations, like harbor seal, were already declining so the spill added insult to injury. Only 2 of 26 species studied by the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council have recovered (bald eagle and river otter).[12] "The Exxon Valdez spill killed nearly ten times as many birds as any other U.S. or European oil spill," said seabird expert Dr. Michael Fry. As many as half a million birds died. Over 30,000 carcasses of 90 species of birds were plucked from the beaches, but this is only a fraction of the actual mortality.[13] Harm to birds from chronic effects and decreased reproduction continues to the present.population control via our own poeple.our own gov.?
“But it doesn’t take a disaster to destroy wilderness. The hundreds of miles of pipelines, roads, docks, causeways, airstrips, the thousands of personnel, the constant roar of trucks, planes, and the drilling equipment itself destroy the wilderness even if it is carried on with immaculate care….
And it is also common to feel anger. Anger over broken promises. Anger over lies. Anger over greed, arrogance, and ineptitude. Anger that so few can destroy so much. Anger can be constructive, but only if we use its energy to undertake constructive tasks. Let us apply ourselves to protect our wild places, our last wild places, from ever being victims of another disaster.
