BP has sprayed nearly 700,000 gallons of Corexit chemical dispersant on the surface of the gulf and directly onto the leaking well head, a mile underwater. It is by far the largest use of chemicals to break up an oil spill in United States waters to date.
Corexit is Killing the Gulf
It appears to me that everything BP has done so far has been an attempt to CONTROL this disaster rather than STOP IT. I belive they could have stopped the flow rather quickly if motivated to do so, but they are trying to maintain the viability of their precious well at the expense of the earth and peasants.
