The Environmental Protection Agency has announced more stringent rules governing offshore oil spill response, amid continuing concerns about the effects on public health and wildlife from chemical disasters, including BP’s Deepwater Horizon explosion in 2010. The federal agency, which announced the update on Monday, had not updated its rule regulating the chemicals used to break up offshore oil slicks since 1994. Five environmental organizations, an Alaskan tribal leader and a south Louisiana fisher sued the EPA in 2020 to force the agency to update its regulations based on lessons learned from the BP oil spill and the Exxon Valdez oil spill in 1989. In 2021, US district court judge William Orrick ordered the EPA to update its oil spill response plans. Thousands of people who rushed into Gulf of Mexico waters to clean up BP’s oil spill have fallen ill, and some have died. A recent Guardian investigation spotlighted the difficult legal fight that cleanup workers who got sick have been experiencing trying to bring medical cases against the oil giant. More than three decades earlier, those who cleaned up the Exxon Valdez oil tanker spill off the coast of Alaska suffered the same fate. A growing body of research has linked exposure to the dispersants used by BP to break up oil slicks with chronic illnesses, including increased risk of cancer, heart conditions and an increased rate of births of premature and underweight infants. The updated EPA rule, which takes effect in December, requires dispersants to undergo more stringent toxicity and efficacy testing before they can be approved for use. Dispersants currently approved by the agency must undergo retesting under the new criteria. Products not retested within two years after the rule takes effect or that do not meet the new criteria will be removed from the approved list, according to the updated regulations.

had to unfollow someone I really liked cause they support nuclear power and kept ragging on people who didn’t believe in it calling them ignorant and as bad as antivaxxers and it’s like man. I’m not dumb because I disagree with you. Radiation is fucking terrifying, and the idea that being scared of something that will proveably kill you in horrific ways is the same as being scared of proveably safe vaccines that save lives is a cruel mischaracterization.
#radiation is one of my biggest fears#and I’m absolutely anti nuclear power#because three mile island and chernobyl showed us that human error can always override machine safety#and fukishima showed us that even the safest machines can’t survive every natural disaster#like I don’t support fossil fuel power but jesus#like the bp spill was terrible coal accidents are terrible#but oil spills can be cleaned up. you can wash rocks and animals even if it takes a long time#and power plant accidents are tragic but the people that die are confined to the people that die in the immediate incident#nuclear power accidents? oh no it doesn’t work like that#wherever the radiation touches is contaminated#and the highly irradiated areas? unlivable within our lifetimes. within tens of thousands of our lifetimes#and the disaster isn’t just contained to the incident. yeah some people may die immediately from regular causes#some may die from radiation poisoning#but radiation causes cancer. there are people who survived these events who are dying from it now#because regardless of what they’ll tell you — THERE IS NO SAFE AMOUNT OF RADIATION#even the smallest amount WILL change your dna#the smaller amounts are more likely to change junk dna that doesn’t actually code for anything sure#but any amount has the possibility of changing dna that will lead to cancer#and you wouldn’t even know until 40 years later because that’s how long on average it takes the cancer to develop#and even then the disaster can STILL KILL PEOPLE even after the disaster is over!!!#there were russian soldiers in chernobyl who dug up the wrong dirt and got radiation poisoning#the reactor is concealed within two separate containment buildings but the disaster can STILL KILL PEOPLE#it’s not safe there and for all we know all of humanity could be dead before we’d be able to live there again#solar and wind have their problems sure but#nuclear just isn’t worth it because all you need is ONE fuckup for things to go wrong for so many people for so long

BP Oil Spill False Flag Operation
Tumblr media
In 2010, the BP 0il Spill was "FALSE FLAG OPERATION"(meaning done intentionally), orchestrated for financial gain and creating new government agencies! 13 hours before the disaster, Dick Cheney was on board of the oil rig! When it happened, people who were in charge of it that were on land weren't notified until 3 hours after it was a huge problem. Cheney used to be the CEO of Halliburton, and they were in charge of re-inforcing the oil rig with cement, and, also before the spill occured, Halliburton bought the "Boots & Coots" clean up company, which is the biggest clean up company in the world 11 days before the spill happened!
Tumblr media
Months before the spill occured, giant Wall Street players started to sell hundreds of millions of dollars in BP stocks. Tony Hayward, ceo of BP at the time, cut his losses too as if he knew something was going to happen. He sold about a 3rd of his own BP stock weeks before this happened, and he's the CEO! This is obviously prior knowledge to me.
HERE ARE A FEW OF THE POLITICAL GAINS THE GOVERNMENT GOT:
1. Sales of shares and stocks in days and weeks beforehand for HUGE profits
2. Halliburton link, acquisition of cleanup company days before explosion
-Halliburton was forced to admit in testimony at a congressional hearing last month that it carried out a cementing operation 20 hours before the Gulf of Mexico rig went up in flames. The lawsuits claim that four Halliburton workers stationed on the rig improperly capped the well.
3. BP report cites undocumented tampering with well sealing equipment
4. Government USES DISASTER to push for Carbon Tax, Nationalization talks.

Tokyo, 2004
"Gojo, what would you do if the world froze over?" Ieiri asked, tossing her 3D glasses into the return bin.
"Hmmm..." he pondered while sucking the last of his soda through the straw, "I'd probably go to Fiji."
"I said the world. Fiji's frozen too."
"Help people, I guess? But if it's anything like that movie I'm guessing that there'd be an explosion of curses too. And then there's tsunamis and blizzards and nuclear reactors going haywire because everything's frozen," he scratched his temple and started chewing on the straw, "I'm just one guy."
The three freshmen walked out of the movie theater in silence, each trying to think their way through the problem.
Gojo stopped to look at the sky, "Man, what would I do?"
Suguru was surprised to see him so stumped. He was supposed to be unstoppable. God's favorite. A once-in-a-millennia talent with the power to wipe out entire cities in an instant. But here he was, staring at a cloud with those flimsy 3D glasses still on his face.
He decided to say something: "I mean, we've got a few decades right? If it's a man made problem we can just stop it from happening in the first place.”
"Yeah... Yeah! Any ideas?" Gojo looked him straight in the eyes and smiled. Suguru found himself smiling back.
"We could blackmail George Bush," Ieiri piped up.
An excerpt for a fic I’m writing!! A Suguru-centric one-shot that focuses around his freshman year.
It’s about halfway done!

The story of Armored Core 6: Chapter 3 is pretty insane if you think about it.
Tumblr media
It’s like if Exxon, BP, and Shell formed an alliance and built a mercenary army to slaughter a force of UN peacekeepers; peacekeepers whose primary mission was to clean up a massive burning oil spill.

Hello, I am shell, please give me oil I promise not to spill it. I can, in fact, power your cars for the low price of 1 million dollars. I would tag BP, but they are, unfortunately, real.

No, I do not use too many commas, that is a lie.
