[quote=evolusd]Oddly, I’m with brian on this one. I’m all for other renewable sources (solar, wind, etc) that don’t carry with them the huge risk ocean floor oil drilling does.
I’m an avid surfer, so I guess the ocean is more sacred to me than most. This spill and the length of time to remedy the problem makes me sick.[/quote]
Ocean is almost sacred to me too. The economy and life as we all know it is built around oil….like it or not. I’m all for renewable sources. What momementum do we have on itiatives for those? Until we get serious on that, drill baby drill.
The real outrage here should be on our lack of effort to develop alternatives, not on BP. We all talked in good game with $5/gallon gas in 2008. Nothing ever became of it.
