Toxic Rain Falls in Louisiana

Editor’s note: Other people in Louisiana have sent emails to Infowars stating they have not experienced oil rain. We will continue to monitor this story and report.

'While the corporate media concentrates on Joe Barton’s apology to BP and Tony Hayward taking off to attend a yacht race around England’s Isle of Wight, people on the ground in Louisiana — what BP chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg called the “small people” — are beginning to experience the result of millions of gallons of oil poured into the Gulf of Mexico.

It is now raining oil — and we can assume the highly toxic dispersant Corexit 9500 — in River Ridge, Louisiana. The following video purports to document the oil rain:

'The Gulf of Mexico is heating up as summer progresses. Oil and Corexit 9500 are going through a molecular transition, changing from a liquid to a gas and then absorbed by clouds and released as toxic rain. Oil in the environment is toxic at 11 PPM (parts per million). Corexit 9500 is toxic at only 2.61 PPM.

Oil contains a number of dangerous chemicals, including Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xylene, Naphthalene, Hydrogen sulfide, and others.

No word yet from the corporate media on this. CNN is covering the impact of the oil “spill” on animal and marine life but is not talking much about the environmental impact on the small people.'

Just a Few Things BP Does NOT Want You to Know…

by Dr. Mercola


'The U.S. regulators who were responsible for oversight of drilling in the Gulf of Mexico accepted meals, tickets to sporting events and gifts from at least one oil company. A new report offers further evidence that the Minerals Management Service has what has been described as a culture of lax oversight and cozy ties to industry.

You can click on The Star link below to see some of the devastating effects the oil spill has had on wildlife.

The problem was not confined to the MMS. In 2007, a British Petroleum refinery in Indiana was allowed to continue to dump mercury into Lake Michigan by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management. A permit exempted a BP plant from a federal regulation limiting mercury discharges into the Great Lakes.”

“Another Accident Waiting to Happen?

Internal BP documents and employee interviews have revealed another disaster in the making on BP’s Prudhoe Bay oil field in Alaska. In an investigative report, employees told Truthout that hundreds of miles of rotting pipe are ready to break — an environmental mess they believe could be even worse than the Gulf oil spill.

Employees anonymously said that BP follows an “operate to failure” attitude, running equipment until it breaks rather than spending money on upkeep. Truthout even reports that senior BP managers get bonuses when they manage to not use funds designated for maintenance.'

Will the Gulf Oil Disaster Lead to an Explosion of the Seabed? Poisonous Gas Cloud and Tsunami Worst Case Scenario?

'What is the worst case scenario when it comes to the Gulf Oil spill? What could it lead to? Did someone intentionally want to create a global environmental problem? An ROV has already filmed oil leaks coming from rock cracks on the sea floor. Will the seabed blow, creating a tsunami and releasing a poisonous gas cloud never seen before? How bad is this going to get?'
