"Scientists at the University of California-Davis, which manages California's Oiled Wildlife Care Network, point out that should the oil hit shore, it could have a serious, long-term impact on marine seabirds, such as brown pelicans.
It's an accepted fact that the marshes of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama -- the Fertile Crescent -- produce 90 percent of the seafood in the Gulf of Mexico," Crozier told the Mississippi Press. "If you were to pave that over with an oil spill, you'd see a dramatic drop in seafood recruitment, possibly for years to come."
In order to address this environmental disaster, concerned citizen should set up a network of volunteers to mitigate the effects of the oil spill by initiating community based activities in protecting the shores through clean up operation of the concerned States mentioned above. The costs of the clean up should be burdened by BP.
In cleaning up the shores of oil slick, one of the crude ways to remove it, is through the use of human hair. This method has been used here in the Philippines during the oil spill in the island of Guimaras.
