Yet again an oil spill leads to ecologic disaster in one of the worlds most beautiful places. We learned about the Yellowstone Oil Spill a few days ago in early July 2011. This being the second known oil disaster in Montana's Yellowstone National Forest, for some reason I doubt it will be the last. Over 1,000 barrels of liquid crude oil spilled into Montana's Yellowstone river this July which lead to a fun holiday weekend for residents of Yellowstone who were quickly evacuated. This was quickly prompted by a quick "Sorry" from officials from ExxonMobil. It would appear you can repeat the same actions over and over just as long you give a quick sorry afterwords. Just make sure you have the resources to clean up such a spill. It would seem it is easier to clean up an oil spill, rather than to fix the issue from happening again. At least this would show to be the strategy of ExxonMobil. Yellowstone is a must see in America. As Yellowstone is one of the most spectacular places to see nature and beauty up close and personal. Just watch out for the oil slicks. To me this attitude is completely irrational and very upsetting. Well it was only an oil spill in the Yellowstone River, not on the land. This is what these people from these big oil companies such as ExxonMobil say. So when your walking around Yellowstone observing the beautiful Bison do not worry about where these creatures replenish their thirst. If we were to think about such things we might start to get a little angry at oil companies like ExxonMobil. Also do not wonder about the fish that Omnivores such as bears eat. This is apparently the attitude of the people at ExxonMobil, as well the attitude they expect the residents of Yellowstone and the greater world to have. If there was any other attitude these Yellowstone River oil spills would have stopped years ago. However year after year we hear about a new pipe bursting or an oil rig exploding, or a oil tanker sinking, and so on and so on. It is just one oil disaster after another these days. The question is how much more can this beautiful planet take? Known oil spills at Yellowstone. August 29, 2006 Old Faithful Lodge Oil Spill. Almost 800 gallons of heating oil spilled onto Yellowstone soil by the Old Faithful Snow Lodge. July 1, 2011 Recent Yellowstone River Oil Spill. Over 1,000 gallons of crude into Montana's Yellowstone River. Let us hope and pray that this is the last. However as long as it remains cheaper and easier for Big Oil Companies like ExxonMobil to react, rather than take a proactive approach. I highly doubt that this will be the last oil disaster in Yellowstone.  Just keep the guys on call to react to future oil spills. Everything will be just fine as long as we continue to "react" fast. 1 Comment Gulf Oil Spill 04/30/2010
Here we go again, 10,000 barrels of oil leaking into the gulf of Mexico every hour. Let me be a prophet today, when I say Human greed is quickly leading to the destruction of human kind. Moreover the time is coming for action, this action is going to lead to the destruction of America itself. The greed that lies at the heart of this country is going against the very dedication of mankind in helping life on this planet flourish. The coal mine catastrophe that took the lives of 29 in West Virgina, has now happened again in Kentucky. If we as human beings do not step up and act, we are inviting the world destruction of the Antichrist himself. We now have a choice, who will win from here, will we invite the destruction of the Antichrist or will we persevere and let good reign for the next thousand years. We have waited long enough for divine action, the time for us to act is soon at hand. We are here, those waiting for the rapture, are similar to those Nazi's whom sat back and watched as the concentration camps smoke stacks pumped out the stench of death. If you simply sit back and wait, then you are directly taking part in the destruction of this planet, as well as the destruction of human kind itself. If we do not step into the new era, then we will be thrown into a new era, in which seeks our individual destruction. The beast shall rise out of the sea, because we have deprived the creature of it's most vital resource, oxygen, choking in oil will bring anything to the surface in time. If you seek to destroy the planet, you will inevitably only destroy yourself. Those of you who do not act, shall not expect to be whisked away into the heavens, instead you shall expect to burn with the earth, be sucked into the mantle and bound over into the rock, over a period of time in which you could not ever fathom. If you seek pleasure from the earth, than it is pleasure in which you will receive, if you consider pleasure having your soul sucked into a black hole, and your body bound into a rock. Soon signs will appear in the sky's by this time, the time for human action is fruitless. Simply living one's life and rewarding, the greedy CEO's and corporate goons, with your fruitless income is simply not enough. I know most people are stuck within their daily meaningless lives, as if everything is okay. However any half wit understands that something is afoot. If we cannot evolve into a race that acts as one, unties as one, and thinks as one, then we have no good purpose, and history will show, that those with no good purpose are not around today in any meaningful fashion. | Steve Miller
