 oil disaster - will washington wake up - offshore oil , why

how many disasters, does it take before washington to open its eyes. the gulf of mexico should be a reminder to the whole of america - dirty fuel when it goes wrong the result, is unamaginable. distroying industries that have been there for centuries is just wrong. the fishing industry- the oysters, the shrimp-endless fish species endangered. the travel industry- who wants to go to a tar beach. bp is saying there doing a good job in containing the spiil- tell that to the culture of the gulf, the cajans, the floridians, the texans, you swim in a oil lake.this energy has now donemore harm than good. washington needs to open its eyes- rethink energy- stop poisoning our waters, our land and draining our pockets so some foriegn powers kids can go to a better college than us. strike one-standard oil seepageof oil into the gowanas canal is an environmental disaster that the people of brooklyn on the east coasyt has had to deal with for the last 100 years. strike two - the exxon valdez l spill in alaska distroyed the fishing industry there and still haven't cleaned up. strike three- bp disaster in the gulf of mexico is now the biggest oil disaster in the united states.there are sources in this country that could replace oil gas and coal, but we need a government with B$%#S that will take the lead and like germany says we are going to do everything in our power to make a cleanenergy country and not just talk about it.otec  not opec could use the resources of the oceans cold and warm weather to create energy. the united states has water on three sides of it with more power to create energy with turbines, the tides, and the waves, all clean and abundant. we have  sun that strikes the earth and plenty of ways to harness if washington would give its citizens and companies the same rebates that they give the oil ,gas and coal companies. there is so much wind and with smart grids and super and ultra capasitors or built into high wire towers and on tops of buildingscould also provide endless nonpolluting energy. algae to clean urine and clean wastes and create bio oil is hear today. food waste that fills the landfills with bateria could be turned into cellulose ethanol. just recycling everything we throw out by retrofiting every waste treatment plants to mechanically sort its garbage, seperating everything that can be recycled .we are the caretakers of this earth. yet suposely we seem to be able to distroy. washington needs to take the lead in changing the future, because this is the administration that promised change and now its time to honor that promise and give us change.we need the big green push to provide us with jobs and give the next generation a future that doesn't entale polluting our waters and land from the effects of coal oil and gas.
