As a coastal scientist I've been closely following the technical issues. My conclusion: We have been slimed by BP's arrogant decision to push the technological envelope of deep-water oil production, with more at stake than the $5.6 billion first quarter profits reported by this oil giant.
Adding... frankly the column gets a bit weaker from there ending in the trite statement about our "addiction to oil". The important point for me remains that the catastrophic risks were not only accounted for but flatly denied by BP and its allies in government.
