I been thinking about the upcoming season and the Gulf oil.
So far what was discussed was the transport of oil inland via convection.
I have seen nothing discussed about floating oil being blown and scattered via 80+ winds, and even more disturbing factor is tidal surge.
What will be the case and what kind of deterrent is planned/ in force to keep the oil laden globs from being pushed inland via Tropical Storm Surge--this could get into local drinking water, how about the future damage that oil moved inland via a surge would do to say-grocery stores, restaurants, homes?
Will BP try to claim they are no longer liable for damages from the oil spill as it was the Hurricanes that made it worse-an unforeseen natural event?
I believe 100 times the effort and manpower needs to be harnessed NOW to clean and stop the leak before we have damages so bad they will be irreversible for decades.
