“BP told many of its cleanup workers that they did not need to wear breathing protection because the toxic components of the oil had evaporated or were broken down in the waves, according to the company’s safety briefings. Despite receiving advice from the federal government to conduct biological monitoring by measuring toxins in the cleanup workers’ blood, skin or urine, BP didn’t collect evidence that could have shown whether toxins contained in the oil had entered workers’ bloodstreams, according to plaintiffs’ attorneys.

In 2010, BP ran a huge PR campaign to convince the public that the Gulf would recover. While the smell of oil and Corexit was still in the air, BP was already building its legal defense against the very workers it claimed were repairing the spill’s environmental damage, according to new evidence reported for the first time by the Guardian.

There is no class-action settlement for the cleanup workers and coastal residents who fell ill years after the spill. Due to the terms of an earlier settlement, they must sue BP individually to be compensated for their chronic injuries, and many of the cases are under a court order that prevents them from seeking punitive damages.”

Excerpt from this Washington Post article:

Fearing the next spill, Arnesen joined a lawsuit against the Environmental Protection Agency, claiming that the agency has allowed 25 years to go by without updating the National Contingency Plan to respond to oil spills. On Monday, the University of California at Berkeley Environmental Law Center issued the agency a 60-day intent to sue notice on behalf of several groups and individuals “for failure to perform a non-discretionary duty” under the Clean Water Act.

In the absence of an update, the EPA has continued to allow emergency responders to use a chemical mixture called Corexit to disperse oil into droplets that allow microbes to further break it down, the groups say.

About 20 percent of nearly 5,000 Coast Guard personnel who responded to the BP spill and were exposed to the toxin reported persistent coughing. Others experienced wheezing and trouble breathing, according to a 2018 study commissioned by the National Institutes of Health.

“The combination of both oil and oil dispersants presented associations that were much greater in magnitude than oil alone for coughing, shortness of breath and wheezing,” the report said.

A Louisiana State University study two years prior reported a similar finding: that symptoms from exposure resulted in “burning in nose, throat or lungs, sore throat, dizziness and wheezing."

The other plaintiffs come from Alaska, where the Trump administration is pushing to open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil leasing for the first time. They include an activist inletkeeper, a community group and an Inuit woman.

Remember Corexit, the dispersant used in the BP cleanup (if cleanup is the right word)? At the time, Scientific American called the use of Corexit a “massive, uncontrolled experiment being run in the Gulf of Mexico.” The Scientific American article pointed out that Corexit “exerts a synergistic effect when mixed with oil, increasing its toxicity”. So how have things shaken out since 2010? Lori Bosarge of Coden, Alabama, was exposed to Corexit when it was sprayed on Portersville Bay, a quarter mile from her home. First, Lori struggled with debilitating breathing issues and constant skin rashes. Later, in 2016, she began to have seizures, and then an aneurism. But, she says, many folks around Coden and Bayou La Batre are even sicker. And so Lori has become an activist, keeping national environmental watchdog groups abreast of the situation on the Alabama Coast. According to a report by the Government Accountability Project (2018), cancer rates are rising fast in Gulf communities exposed to Corexit. The symptoms jibe with warnings on the manufacturer label, stating Corexit’s potential human health hazard is high, and exposure can cause central nervous system effects as well as kidney and liver damage. And yet BP continues to use it- years after the EPA told them to stop. Since the Corexit used in the Exxon Valdez cleanup is still on the Alaskan seabed 29 years later, it looks like it could be around for a long time to come. ‪#BP #oilspill #Corexit #dispersant #cleanup #gulfofmexico #Environment #Gulf #deepwater #DeepwaterHorizon #Toxic #coden #bayoulabatre #alabama ‬#itsalwaystheaftermath (at Coden, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuUqkMqFuvg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15px28l4r02wo

Ghostscapes are damaged landscapes where traces of concealed violence nonetheless haunt the margins of the visible. They appear as haunted geographies and accusatory apparitions on the landscape itself: the bone lands of famine and genocide; half-buried munitions; eerie ecologies such as ghost forests and skeleton trees; abandoned wastelands or military borderlands. Take the [...] crimson black smears of oil mixed with Corexit that stretched to every horizon during the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster. 

On April 20, 2010, the BP Deepwater Horizon rig exploded in the Macondo Prospect; a crimson and gray apocalypse pitching and sinking [...]. The disaster unleashed more than ten million gallons of oil across the Gulf of Mexico [...]. It also became the largest cover-up of an environmental disaster in US history.

The forever war had come ashore and the Gulf became a ghostscape. A calamity of untold magnitude unfolded and alongside it a strange militarization emerged, as the language for managing the crisis became the language of war. War talk fired from the media, the Coastguard, and local officials alike. State Governor Bobby Jindal: “We need to see this is a war. A war to save Louisiana.” Billy Nungesser, President of the Plaquemines Parish: “We will persevere to win this war.” Political consultant James Carville: “This is literally a war.” And General Russel L. Honoré: “We need to act like this is World War III. Treat this like it’s an invasion. We’ve got to find the oil and kill it.” 

Visit the BP website in 2010 and you would see the word “kill” appear with ritualistic incantation. Kill the well. Kill the leak. Kill the oil. Culminating in the “kill shot,” the weird slurry of car tires and golf-balls that BP initially fired at the leak to “kill” it. As if by throwing the sacrificial detritus of our oil-soaked leisure activities into the maw of the oil-god, BP could stop it spewing death. [...]

All this talk of war ghosts the fact that militarization is the largest single cause of environmental destruction in the world. The US military is the largest single polluter on the planet. The Department of Defense is the largest single consumer of oil in the world. And the Pentagon is BP’s largest client. But the hinge that connects the environmental catastrophe of militarization and the militarization of environmental catastrophe has been ghosted. With the conjoined collusion of BP, the US Coastguard, the National Guard, and the Obama Administration, the Gulf disaster fell into a great, administered forgetting. 

Shortly after the blowout in June, an extraordinary ruling was passed. No one could go within sixty feet of oil-damaged areas effective across five states. No one could go within sixty feet of barrier islands, oiled marshes, birds, boom, public beaches, clean-up boats, or clinics, and independent fly-overs were forbidden. BP workers were forbidden to talk to any media. Scientists had to sign non-disclosure agreements. And if anyone violated the ruling, they faced $40,000 fines or felony charges. [...]

-------

What many don’t know, is that the militarization of the Gulf catastrophe was also a soft launch of what the Pentagon calls “a revolution in warfare”: using climate emergency to justify perpetual war. Climate change has become the Pentagon’s new, improved “hostile.” [...]

Climate chaos is now seen as both a threat multiplier and a huge opportunity for the military. Admiral Thomas J. Lopez puts it bluntly: “Climate change will provide the conditions that will extend the war on terror.” Climate disaster is a new paradigm for suppressing media coverage of war, for new Special Ops and Dark programs, for legitimizing assassinations and drone warfare, and for criminalizing environmental activism [...].

The inhabitants of Isle de Jean Charles, mostly Biloxi-Chitimacha-Choctaw, have been called the first federally funded “climate refugees” in the US. [...] In 2016 , the State of Louisiana won a $48 million federal grant to relocate them to a suburban settlement further inland [...]. Their proposed settlement is a sugar cane farm—a ghost of the colonial system that ravaged Native cultures in the first place. Colonial déjà vu. [...]

The islanders’ Choctaw forebears fled the brutal land theft of the 1830 Indian Removal Act, a colonial cataclysm [...]. Then in the 1920s, the oil companies came. [...]

In early 2017, the peaceful Standing Rock protests against the Keystone Pipeline were brutally dismantled by militarized police. A few weeks later, an oil pipeline was slated to cross tribal land in Oklahoma. Oklahoma has thirty-nine Native Nations, most of whom were forcibly moved there during the Trail of Tears. A coalition to protest the pipeline quickly emerged. The following week, Bill 1123 was introduced in the Oklahoma State Senate. The Critical Infrastructure Protection Act  “would impose punishments of up to 10 years in prison and $100,000 in fines -- and up to $1 million in penalties for any organization ‘found to be a conspirator’ in violating the new law.” Defined by the bill, “critical infrastructure” broadly refers to oil, gas, chemical, or coal equipment or facilities [...]. Even stepping on a pipeline easement can incur a year in prison. The Critical Infrastructure Protection Act soon became the blueprint for a raft of radically repressive bills that have since been quietly introduced in thirty-one states across the country. [...]

El mayor desastre petrolero

El Deep water horizon (Horizonte profundo) era una plataforma pertolífera semisumergible ubicada en el Golfo de México (actualmente compartido por Estados unidos, México y cuba). 

El 20 de abril de 2010 ocurrió en este, un hecho sin precedentes que afectaría la vida de 11 trabajadores de la planta, la flora y la fauna marina del golfo de México. Ocurriría entonces uno de los mayores desastres petroleros de la historia. 

La gran explosión fue producida por una fuga de metano que se introdujo en su sistema de ventilación. La torre de 6 pisos de altura se encontró ardiendo durante dos días completos hasta que finalmente los restos de esta se hundieron. Generó una increíble contaminación derramando más de cinco millones de barriles de petróleo (795 millones de Litros aproximadamente) derramados directamente en el corazón del Golfo de México. Lo que hace único a este desastre es que se brotaba crudo desde el fondo del océano, vertiendo de forma continua y durante 84 días cerca de unos 14000 barriles de petroleo diarios. 

Esta incontrolable pérdida se produjo debido a que se hizo imposible sellar de forma rápida las incontables fugas en el sistema de tuberías que se hallaban en el fondo 500 metros debajo de la superficie del mar.

En el accidente murieron 11 trabajadores y luego más tarde a causa de la contaminación también murieron miles de peces, moluscos,  crustáceos, aves tortugas marinas y cientos de mamíferos marinos. pero sin embargo, no hay culpables ni tampoco algún detenido por semejante desastre. 

Además de la inmensa cantidad de petróleo derramado en el océano, también se añadieron otros siete millones de litros de dispersante tóxico. La función de este dispersante es atrapar la mancha de petróleo de la superficie, aumentando la densidad este, provocando así que esta mezcla se precipite a la profundidad del océano. Por ende todo el petróleo quedó oculto en el fondo del lecho marino. El dispersante tóxico es llamado Corexit, y este mezclado con petroleo  aumentan las condiciones de toxicidad a un 55%. 

Todavía no se sabe que consecuencias traerá esta catástrofe a largo tiempo en este ecosistema y en ultima instancia que efectos causará en los humanos que consuman las especies que han acumulado estas sustancias nocivas. ¿Por que nadie está hablando de esto? ¿Por que este hecho a sido ocultado? ¿No nos importa las capas masivas que todavía se encuentran en este ecosistema? ¿No nos importa las consecuencias? ¿Que piensas tu de esto?

Si quieres tener más información a cerca de esta terrible catástrofe, puedes leer el articulo publicado por The New York Times titulado “ Deepwater Horizon’s Final Hours “ en este enlace https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/2010/12/26/us/26spill.html

En el 2016 se estrenó la película “Deepwater horizon” del director Peter Berg y protagonizada por actores como Mark Whalberg, Dylan O´brien y Kurt Russel. Esta es basada en el articulo mencionado anteriormente; en donde se cuenta el suceso teniendo como personaje principal a  Mike Williams, uno de los trabajadores de la planta.

We all remember the BP spill in 2010, but do we know where all the oil went? Thanks to science, a dispersant broke most of it up and it was bio-degraded.

Focusing on the one of the worst human disasters to date Beltra captured the gripping images on the fatal oil spill on the Gulf of Mexico, April 2010. Due to an explosion, killing 11 men, 210 million gallons of oil spread across 68,000 square miles of ocean. Beltra captured these images showing the devestating effects of the oil spill from the Cessna floatplane, 3,000ft above the Louisiana coastline. The project was to last 4 days but was later extended to 28. 

To try and prevent the oil from spreading further it was decided that a C-130 plane sprayed dispersant on the oil. The dispersant contained a chemical known as corexit, a solvent that breaks down lipid membranes of cells. The treatment proved very controversial due to the toxicity of the chemical. Despite this, 1.8 million tons of the chemical was used. To this day, at least 1/3 of the oil is still roaming the oceans.

Deepwater Horizon - Analysis

I have been looking forward to reflecting on this one; it really was an interesting case study, and an intriguing class discussion. 

tldr; we thought that implementing/revising standards was of higher priority than trying to change workplace culture because if humans suck at something it’s changing their mind quickly. In fact, that’s our Human Weakness of the Week 😁 #HWOTW

Unfortunately I put myself on the backfoot from the start for this by failing to read (or rather watch) the entire case prior to class. Not for a lack of intention, or arguably even planning... I had set aside some time earlier in the day, it just turned out that it wasn’t quite the 90 minutes required. We were strategically broken up into groups that compensated for my (and a handful of others) lack of detailed case knowledge, and got straight into it.

What happened? 

What could we learn from it?

What should we do (or have done) in the wake of it and with what precedence?

I will attempt to recount some facts from the case, but be warned we’re about 4 ears deep in Chinese whispers.

The big picture was that an oil rig (with a stellar track record mind you) exploded, and in A Series of Unfortunate Events, whereby a string of fail-safes did themselves fail, oil relentlessly spouted into the Gulf of Mexico for over a month.

Some finer details that I combed for were that oil ended up on the rig having leaked through some poorly proofed concrete. The oil itself was perhaps thinner having been mixed with the wrong spacer (a liquid used to separating oil and water). The concrete was poorly proofed because, well, it was a little botched but good enough, right? And the spacer was a bit off, but only because we had some of that other spacer left over so we thought we had better use it up. We failed to detect the change in pressure even though we were measuring it the same way I’ve always done it. The measurements were only off because the spacer was wrong. The oil could have been diverted but we weren’t sure where to dump it.

Again, I’m not sure about this, but this was the impression I got.

What happened next was that the oil ran into something electrical like the exhaust fans, where it ignited in a massive explosion sending the entire rig up into flames. Untethered, the rig drifted on the ocean ripping the pipes out of the oil bed. Various contraptions intended to seal the well failed owing to damage done to components beneath them. The well was incredibly deep and presumably violent in it’s outcry, meaning it was months before someone could shut it up. We dumped a novel technology, Corexit, on the ginormous spill to clean it up only to discover that made more of a mess and we now had to “Corrects It” too.

I digress, and admit to overusing diction to depict a lack of intelligence in those involved. The truth is that this isn’t a story of people being stupid, but rather people being people.

In our postmortem prescription we gave greatest precedence to implementing and revising standards for all of the offending procedures and perhaps a couple more. Standards are core to the engineering practice, and updating them is how we learn from our mistakes. Whilst there is no guarantee that they will be upheld, the do provide accountability and (as phrased in my notes) a framework to encourage less sucky people.

In the vein of people being reliably wrong, we went on to suggest further development and implementation of automated safety systems, both for monitoring, anomaly detection and shut-down. If and when effective systems are built, their use could be mandated by standards. Class suggestions for human-in-the-loop were very reasonable. 

Our third suggestion, and we had to argue for it to come third, was advising that the company reviews it’s leadership structures and safety management. There is supposedly evidence to suggest that having safety professionals in all your teams rather than a dedicated safety team encourages better company-wide behaviour by avoiding silo-ing. Effectively, we are hoping to change the culture around safety in big businesses like BP. 

Whilst I could accept that the root causes of the problems were more the results of human behaviour than lacking standards, and that human behaviour results from culture, it seems true enough that standards could raise the bar to an acceptable level much quicker than any attempts to change workplace culture. Not even an executive order can change culture overnight. If there’s one thing human’s suck at most, it’s changing their ways.

We also had to wonder where the backup plan was. The backup backup backup backup backup plan I guess in this case. If someone, somewhere, had done a worst case analysis, why were we in a position where we had to resort to dumping an experimental agent onto the oil spill to try and clean it up? Perhaps next time we can have an effective solution ready before we take on that risk.

All in all, this was quite a spectacular disaster, and let’s hope (or better know) that it won’t happen again.

eight Dangerous And Shocking Components Hidden In Your Foods

As a knowledgeable personal instructor together with well being coach I've assessed a lot of diets and dish plans in the past. My partner and i always ask "So what is definitely your diet like? inches And the most typical response is definitely... "Oh our diet's excellent actually. very well It's not really until all of us delve deeper into what exactly people are taking in upon a daily basis wherever we learn to realize of which their diet had not been that healthful after all. Must be food product is resting over a supermarket shelf isn't going to signify it's OK to try to eat. Think about it... Little ones can eat colors nonetheless we avoid call up crayons food. Consequently , precisely why are we putting thus a lot of lifeless and nutritional devoid foods as properly as many identified waste into our bodies all these nights? The food firms absolutely don't make it easy. A lot of the meals brands don't make much sense due to all the requirements and unpronounceable companies. But did you know of which there are authorized methods where companies can add specific materials and substances in order to the product, but condition on the label that will the item doesn't incorporate those ingredients at all of? Absurd isn't the idea! While you read on likely to come to realize why additional and more people start to eat fresh and even wholesome unprocessed meals to help avoid all these disgraceful ingredients. Below We have outlined 6 dangerous and even shocking ingredients hidden in your own meals that you should become aware of. one Anti-Freeze Yes you read correct... Anti-freeze is what proceeds into the rad connected with your car so it refuses to over heat but will not freeze up in colder weather. It's called propylene glycol, also known while propane-1, 2-diol or E1520. It's a chemical that will has many industrial works by using for instance Corexit, which is an oil dispersant utilized for oil leaks throughout the ocean. It's furthermore used in pharmaceutical prescription drugs plus cosmetics, right via to many snow treatments. Luckily for the people in the European Partnership, they have not really cleaned propylene glycol while a new food additive or meals grade product. My tips, make your own ice cream and forestall consuming products that contain this kind of substance. 2. Human Curly hair Healthy proteins are the building prevents associated with life and are made up of proteins. Although they are excellent for your health, I'm certain you'd agree that there needs to be a better technique to extend the space life of some goods other than using human hair or duck feathers. This amino-acid L-Cysteine is usually used to prolong this shelf life connected with numerous products such as industrial breads. The L-Cysteine utilized to extend these food items frequently comes from shift and rooster feathers as well as horns via cows that have been slaughtered. However the many commonly used version emanates from human hair. Yes, you read that correctly. Reports have shown that the particular frizzy hair employed to derive L-Cysteine mostly originates from China and taiwan, exactly where it's collected from locks salons and even barber stores, then refined. Most rapid food chains add this particular form of L-Cysteine for their burger buns and comes. To avoid consuming human being hair as well as duck down in your foods, try out acquiring home baked breads out of your local baker as L-Cysteine isn't in the particular flour, but added to the mix during manufacturing of breads and typically the like. Best of all, make your own own. 3. Strychnine Curare is a known carcinogen, which means that that causes cancers in dwelling tissue. Typically the unfortunate factor about this harmful factor is that it appears to be to hold showing up inside our food materials. It can in everything from breakfast cereals and rice, to fruit fruit juice and your current drinking water. Sometimes at amounts about 2 - three or more times what on earth is considered risk-free. It's also been revealed to be in many protein powder-based products. Indeed, foodsdaily.com read that accurately seeing that well... those high-priced health proteins powders that quite a few guys and women waste their funds in have been revealed for you to contain this toxic factor amongst others. Quite a few wine beverages together with beers have likewise been shown to consist of arsenic, mostly the sharper ones. To filter these beverages they use diatomaceous earth, which is a natural product however this contains iron and other factors, such as arsenic. So to stay away from this toxin, get a new good quality water filter for the house and drink vino or beverage that is usually unfiltered. The unfiltered wine beverage in addition to ale also include more nutrients. 4. Fecal Boucles This one sounds nice does not it... Fecal glands any person? No thank you! Most people don't know the fact that some of the tastes utilised in your favorite glaciers creams among other items, comes from typically the castor sacs of beavers, which often is located at their rear end of the animal. That secretion is usually called castoreum and it is utilized to mark the beaver's territory. Due to typically the close easy access of the castor sacs into the beaver's anal boucle, castoreum may be the combination of pee, secretions from typically the castor boucles as properly as secretions from the fecal boucle. Castoreum will be used to be able to flavor vanilla, raspberry plus strawberry snow cream and is a new Food plus Drug Administration (FDA) accredited food chemical in quite a few popular glaciers cream brands. It's in addition accustomed to flavor many refreshments for example protein and food substitute drinks. You will generally still find it labeled since "Natural Flavoring". Isn't very the fact that great, so for everyone a person know, several of these apparent "natural" ingredients may be perineal secretion by other animals. My personal guidance... again, make your very own ice creams so a person no longer take beaver waste. five. Borax Borax offers been prohibited as a new food additive in Europe as well as the U. S. although is allowed in the particular European Union, even though they listed it as a good substance of very high worry. It's commonly used to make cosmetics, detergents, teeth enamel glazes, fiberglass, to be a flux in metallurgy and is particularly made use of in fire retardants. From the food industry it's known by it's E quantity: E285. Borax is utilized regarding acidity control, toning broker and preservative. The idea can be obtained from some caviars, noodles in addition to depending on location can be included a good wide variety of dishes to be able to add a firm texture. Borax has been taking into account the revised classification while dangerous for replica : category 1B. half a dozen. Coal Tar Doesn't this method smart appetizing? No way! You may be thinking what on earth would likely coal tar be performing in food? Nicely the great old processed food industry reaches it once again. So many of the processed food items of which grace the store racks these days contain a new long list of foods inorganic dyes. Most of all those food chemical dyes are made from coal tar and even it is listed because a regarded carcinogen (causes cancer inside of living tissue). It's used in such factors as road manufacturing, road and pavement sealing layers, cosmetics, shampoos and prescription drugs. In foods and even beverages it's known since E102, Tartrazine or perhaps Green #5 and can end up being found in soft drinks, flavored chips, pickles, cheese distinctive flavored products as well since many other food items in addition to beverage items. It is just another reason to keep highly processed meals away through your body in addition to these of your loved kinds. 7. Rodent Hair Would certainly you like some rodent hair with that? Now i'm sure it is something the fact that you usually sprinkle more than your freshly made healthy meals... Not. Well according to the Food and Drug Management (FDA) it's fine to get some rodent hair in the food. Due to many food manufacturing being manufactured through large industrial features, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has an permitting for rodent hair around many solutions, about what they will term "unavoidable defects". They make it possible for 1 rodent hair per 100g regarding chocolates, 5 rodent hair is for every 18oz peanut garnir vessel and 22 rodent hairs per 100g cinnamon. That will sure keep me personally away from processed food for a while. 9. Boiled Beetles This only keeps getting better doesn't it? Now so why do you need chunks of beetles in your food an individual may ask? Known while carmine, natural red-colored #4, crimson pond or perhaps E120, it's some sort of foodstuff color made by way of cooking meals cochineal insects in a salt carbonate or maybe ammonia option. It's used to create plastic-type flowers, inks, inorganic dyes, chemicals and cosmetics. Found in food and beverages is actually accustomed to color ice cream, candy, natural yoghurts and particular fruit juices. Ways to revealed to cause anaphylactic shock and severe sensitized reactions in some people. Different dyes used instead associated with organic #4 are artificial options such as: green #40 plus red #2. These are derived from oil production. My guidance, continue to keep this garbage away through the body as much while you can. We often wonder why that even while we are more computer advanced than any some other time in historical past, humans will also be more ill and unhealthy than virtually any other time in record. To me it's because simple as day. This will be items that I've truly mentioned and the thousands of other food ingredients, flavors, colors and preservatives that our leaders enable manufacturers to add to the particular foods people feed on that is helping to bring about health issues world wide. Thus it really is for you to decide. As Hippocrates said centuries ago: "Let foods be thy medicine and treatments be thy food" Thus be smart and select your food sensibly.
