Apparently blowing up the oil leak is an option. I’ll admit I laughed when I heard President Clinton suggested blowing it up but scientists and the Navy confirm that strategically placed explosives will actually stop the leak permanently.
Could it be possible that BP is ignoring a permanent and immediate solution to the leak in order to see some return on their investment in this oil well? If so, then it certainly wouldn’t be the first illogical move by BP. I would think that stopping the leak is the most profitable avenue at this point in time.
“For the life of me, I can’t understand why BP couldn’t go into the ocean floor, maybe 10 feet lateral to the — around the periphery — drill a few holes and put a little ammonium nitrate, some dynamite, in those holes and detonate that dynamite and seal that leak. And seal it permanently,” Rep. Phil Gingrey (Ga.)
I’m not convinced that boycotting BP gets the results everyone is looking for in this situation. There are other sites that have done the research on this….
Here is one, another, another and another.
I hope local BP gas station owners don’t lose their businesses over something that is so far from their control.
