US must take control from BP now!

I am writing this desperate plea on behalf of the Ocean and all its inhabitants. The exploded oil well volcano in the Gulf of Mexico is a global disaster that crosses international lines and boundaries, crosses culture, race, gender, belief and species, impacting every thing living thing on planet earth. Every creature alive shares the common ancestral link and life line that is our blue water home. All creation on earth grows and flows with seas, as does the food chain that gives every creature life.

The drilling activities of BP in the Gulf of Mexico, their reckless, negligent and criminal actions that created the Deepwater Horizon disaster, and their incompetence to solve the gushing well, and their continuing pollution threatens to destroy our ocean ecosystems and our country's treasured coastlines and marine resources.

This epic environmental destruction caused by BP will make them infamous as the largest international polluter the world has ever known. BP will be remembered as the destroyer of entire marine ecosystems spanning the Gulf of Mexico and beyond. And for more than thirty days now, the disaster has continued to grow without a solution in sight. The growing damage will impact our way of life, our health and our economy.

The criminal activities of British Petroleum, Deepwater Horizon, and Halliburton must be stopped now.

President Obama must act now and order the US Coast Guard, EPA, NOOA, DEQ, and all available resources to take control of the disaster and protect our national resources. US authorities must immediately take control of the disaster site, find solutions to stop the flow, track the spill, execute effective clean up and containment operations, minimize damage where ever possible, and rescue, protect, and preserve every possible species of creatures and habitat. The delicate balance of our future's health depends upon what happens next. How will history remember this moment?

I urge you to take action on behalf of your planet and her oceans.
