yer correct, FDA declares Gulf seafood safe to eat Updated 16 hours, 14 minutes ago Seafood from parts of the oil-fouled Gulf of Mexico has been declared safe to eat by the government, based in part on human smell tests. But some Gulf fishermen question the results. Full story Gulf Dead Zone The Size Of Massachusetts www.huffingtonpost.com NEW ORLEANS — Scientists say this year that the "dead zone" area that forms every summer in the Gulf of Mexico is one of the largest ever measured. The large area of low oxygen that chokes marine life comes in addition to the massive BP oil spill. and Feds Dramatically Increase Oil Spill Estimate, Making BP's The Worst Oil Accident In History www.huffingtonpost.com BP's disastrous oil well explosion sent over 4 million barrels of oil spewing into the Gulf of Mexico, the Coast Guard announced Monday, dramatically increasing the most recent federal estimate. but go ahead and nomnomnom? yo man I don't think so.

Documents indicate heavy use of dispersants in gulf spill www.washingtonpost.com While the BP well was still gushing, the Obama administration issued an order that limited the spreading of controversial dispersant chemicals on the Gulf of Mexico's surface. Their use, they said, should be restricted to "rare cases."

This week at HealthyGulf.org Blogging For A Healthy Gulf: BP's Oil Drilling Disaster [ http://www.healthygulf.org/blog ] It has been over 80 days since the beginning of the largest environmental catastrophe in the Gulf's history. The GRN is continuing to provide independent analysis and monitoring of the disaster as it unfolds and impacts the Gulf, our coast, and communities. Check out our blog for the latest updates and postings at www.healthygulf.org/blog [ http://www.healthygulf.org/blog ]. Tell the Feds to Protect Gulf Wildlife, Not BP [ http://www.BPdrillingdisaster.org ] BP's public relations department has been working around the clock to hide the true impacts of the drilling disaster from the public, and it's well past time we had some real transparency! The federal government should be taking all possible steps to protect Gulf wildlife and open the cleanup and recovery effort to light of public scrutiny - not to protect BP's image. To take action, visit GRN's new website at www.BPdrillingdisaster.org [ http://www.BPdrillingdisaster.org ]. 2. A Future For The Gulf GRN, in partnership with the Gulf Coast Fund (www.gulfcoastfund.org), has launched the Gulf Future campaign to restore the coast, defend our communities, and create a clean future. The campaign kicked off with a series of benefit concerts nationwide on July 1st. Supporters are wearing petroleum-free wristbands to show solidarity with the people of the Gulf Coast. To find out more about this campaign and how to order your wristband, visit www.gulffuture.org [ http://www.gulffuture.org ] 3. Offering Hope To Families And Pets Reports are now coming in that pet owners are relinquishing their pets in record numbers to animal shelters in areas directly affected by the oil disaster. Knowing the physical and mental health benefits of having pets as well as the negative impact of relinquishing a family pet because of natural or man-made disasters; the LA/SPCA has teamed up with local and national partners to create a program aimed at providing short term support for families in jeopardy of relinquishing their pet. The Gulf Coast Companion Animal Relief Program will provide basic veterinary services and dog food (while supplies last) to impacted residents. To learn more about this program, if you qualify, or how you can help please click here [ https://la-spca.org/Page.aspx?pid=509&srctid=1&erid=101665 ]. 4.Sorry Ain't Enough No More Check out this great song and video [ http://www.youtube.com/user/healthygulf1#p/c/D57EC6E2695E0B7B/15/ZCTn9tqU-mE ] by New Orleans musicians Shamarr Allen, Dee-1, Paul Sanchez, and Bennie Pete of the Hot 8 Brass Band. All across the Gulf, musicians have been singing out to express their feelings about the Gulf Oil Disaster. "Sorry Ain't Enough No More" is available for free download on shamarrallen.com [ http://shamarrallen.com ] and dee1music.com [ http://dee1music.com ]. 5. USM biologist monitors effects of oil spill on whale sharks Whale sharks are the biggest fish in the Gulf of Mexico, and now a group of scientists is using satellite technology to track whether any of the giants come into contact with oil from BP's drilling disaster. This video [ http://gtopp.org/ ]shows the scientists, including Eric Hoffmayer of the University of Southern Mississippi and legendary oceanographer Sylvia Earle of Mission Blue, affixing tracking devices on whale sharks in the Gulf last month.You can see for yourself on the project's website [ http://gtopp.org/ ] where the whale sharks tagged by the group are traveling in the Gulf. Earl explains that because of the way the sharks feed - by skimming water at the surface - they could be particularly vulnerable to the effects of BP's oil.Though over 600 sea turtles, 60 dolphins and one sperm whale have been affected by the spill, so far the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has not documented any whale sharks in the oil. 6. What Would Crist Do? Crist Would Ban Offshore Drilling In Florida Gov. Charlie Crist on Thursday abruptly called for a special session of the Legislature to ask lawmakers to let voters consider putting an offshore oil drilling ban in the state Constitution. Crist said the July 20-23 session will be devoted to one issue - "a rifle shot," he called it, intended to tap into widespread disgust over the Deepwater Horizon blowout off the Louisiana coast, which is already decimating the Panhandle's tourist-dependent economy. To read more on Crist's decision, check out this St. Petersburg Times article [ http://www.tampabay.com/news/environment/crist-wants-to-ban-offshore-drilling/1107695 ]. 7. Sand Berms And Rock Jetties: Politics Or Protection? GRN has been paying close attention to the sand berms and rock jetties projects. These structures is a high stakes gamble that can have dangerous long-term consequences for the Gulf Coast. For a closer look into the sand berm issue, read GRN Water Resources Director Matt Rotta's blog [ http://healthygulf.org/201007141410/blog/bp-s-oil-drilling-disaster-in-the-gulf-of-mexico/building-house-on-the-sand-a-bird-s-eye-view ] and see why GRN has raised some questions about these projects. The blog includes a photographic timeline that demonstrates the vulnerability these sand berms have to wave action and tidal surge. For more information about the rock jetties, check out this recent New York Times article. [ http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/07/science/earth/07rocks.html?_r=1&emc=eta1 ] 8. Should BP Belong In The Corporate Hall Of Shame? You Decide. If there were a Corporate Hall of Shame, would BP belong in it? Of course they would.Thankfully, there IS a Hall of Shame for abusive corporations, and now we can help make sure BP is inducted. Corporate Accountability International, a membership organization that protects people through campaigns that challenge abusive corporations, is opening up voting to the public for their popular Corporate Hall of Shame.

Oil Leases Cancelled in Gulf, Atlantic The Center for Biological Diversity applauded this Wednesday when the Obama administration cancelled two offshore oil and gas lease sales: one in the Atlantic, off Virginia, and one in the western Gulf of Mexico. The Atlantic lease sale was in a controversial area approved by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar for expanded offshore oil development after the Bush administration lifted the Atlantic drilling moratorium. The lease sale in the Gulf was scheduled to take place next month. In cancelling the sales, the government admitted it needs more time to improve the safety of offshore oil and gas development and provide greater environmental protection to substantially reduce the risk of catastrophic events like another massive oil spill. "President Obama's decision to cancel these lease sales recognizes that risky offshore drilling needs reform," said Miyoko Sakashita, oceans director at the Center. "In light of the BP oil spill, the president should pull back from the entire plan to expand offshore drilling and instead pursue clean energy." Check out our press release and learn the latest on the Gulf disaster. Then take action to tell the administration to end all dangerous offshore drilling: http://www.biologicaldiversity.org/news/press_releases/2010/offshore-oil-07-27-2010.html http://www.biologicaldiversity.org/programs/public_lands/energy/dirty_energy_development/oil_and_gas/gulf_oil_spill/index.html http://action.biologicaldiversity.org/t/5243/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=3646

Scientists Find Evidence That Oil-Dispersant Mix Is Making Its Way Into The Foodchain

Even though President Obama promised BP will cover 100% of the cost of repairing and cleaning up the Gulf Oil Disaster, the Wall Street Journal reports that BP will force taxpayers to pick up at least $9.9 billion of the bill. How will this happen? BP is planning to use tax-code provisions that allow companies to get refunds on losses. Since the disaster will cost BP at least $32 billion, they want almost $10 billion dollars from taxpayers -- effectively cutting BP clean-up costs by a third. This is unacceptable. The good news is getting BP to drop their claim is a fight we can win. Just this year, public pressure got J.P. Morgan Chase to drop its plan to claim $1.4 billion in tax credits after receiving $25 billion of bailout money. And Goldman Sachs Group agreed not to claim $187 million in tax breaks on the $550 million SEC fine over the Abacus mortgage lawsuit. [1]We can win with your support. Contribute $20 right now to fuel our aggressive campaign to hold BP accountable. DFA members haven't been sitting around waiting for BP to get its act together. You've been leading some of the most aggressive campaigns in the country to hold BP accountable. Take a look at some of the work we've done together so far: * 82,372 people joined our BP Makes Me Sick campaign to make sure clean-up workers were being provided with the protective gear needed to keep from getting ill. Over 50 members of Congress and candidates for office have signed on to add pressure and make it happen. [2]Fuel the campaign to win. * 48,617 DFA members from across the country joined our Boycott BP campaign, refusing to buy gas from BP stations until the company cleans-up the spill. Our Boycott campaign has received press in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and in over 300 Associated Press stories nationwide. Meanwhile BP has seen a 40% drop in sales in locations across the country. [3]Contribute now to hold BP accountable. * 47,581 people joined our Stop Big Oil Bailouts campaign to end subsidies and tax breaks to Big Oil companies like BP. With Social Security under attack again as Congress starts looking at ways to lower the deficit, our campaign highlights the high cost to taxpayers of giveaways to corporations who sell dirty fuels. This campaign is just getting started and already Senators Robert Menendez and Bernie Sanders are working to make it happen. [4]Deliver the resources -- Contribute $20 right now. These campaigns show the White House, Congress and every candidate for office where we stand. BP created the biggest environmental disaster in American history and they want to use taxpayer money to clean it up. Enough is enough -- Stop Big Oil Bailouts. We can make sure BP cleans up the mess they created, provide the protective gear clean-up crews need, and start ending our addiction to Big Oil. But we can't do all of it without your support. [5]Fuel the fight to hold BP accountable. You're making a difference. Thank you for everything you do. -Charles Charles Chamberlain, Political Director Democracy for America
