Marée noire dans le Golfe du Mexique
During the first quarter of the year, we developed and began piloting breakthrough science-based environmental and conservation courses for K-12.
Then, may I be blunt?
All Hell broke loose: the Deepwater Horizon oil blow out initiated the largest environmental disaster in US history. When it became clear that real solutions to the problem were not being utilized, The Earth Organization swung into gear to demonstrate the effectiveness of bio-remediation technology* to public and government officials. Our purpose was to see to the implementation of a solution that would clean up the toxic holocaust that had become the Gulf of Mexico.
Once we arrived in the Gulf area, it became clear that there is more to the situation than meets the eye. We began to investigate why bioremediation, the only real solution to this situation, was not being utilized and, in fact, was being actively prevented from being implemented by the EPA. It also became necessary to investigate why an extraordinarily toxic chemical dispersant, more toxic than the oil itself, was being used and why that was being sanctioned by government agencies.
With the financial support of many of our members, we produced a half-hour documentary exposing the on-going toxic dangers of the water and the seafood created by the use of the chemical dispersant, and educating the public that there is a real solution. (View the video here) Our purpose is to ignite a demand that bio-remediation be implemented immediately.
This program is currently airing on 35 cable channels in Louisiana and will air over 100 times in the next month. We will expand even this coverage. The seafood and tourism industries, as well as all businesses who depend on clean Gulf water, must be saved by truly returning the Gulf to it's pre-oil blow out condition.
If you haven't yet seen the program, or have only seen a portion of it, go to TheEarthOrganizationGulfVideo.org. Please give us your feedback on the documentary, and share it broadly with others.
