I really hope that the gulf of Mexico oil spill is fixed. It is such a terrible thing. Having read and studied quite a bit about the Exxon Valdez oilspill in 1989, I hope BP is more responsible and honest than Exxon. Everything Ive seen says they arent. They had a chance to set an example and become THE environmentally friendly oil company, but hiring hundreds of temp workers for a photoshoot just doesnt fly in 2010 like it did in 1989. There is no way to hide such a large scale environmental catastrophe. I think this will bring about a new nuclear power boom as people realize that even though it has risks, they may be less than the risks of mining hydrocarbons as fuel.
