Comments re: "At worst, Oil Spewed Already Could Fill 102 Gyms "

As one person said, "So, to sum up this article, it's somewhere between a little and a lot, but nobody really knows. Couldn't they have just said this?"

But it's a fascinating and interesting article showing how they might attempt to suction it up with tubes: 


Frequently I find the 'comments' section enlightening... and often saddening to see so much callousness, poor spelling and ignorance.  However "Gr8152"'s comment is excellent - albeit rare!

In fact, I replied to 'Gr8152's' comment:

For Gr8152: Great!  Deep wisdom, makes for wide practicality. Thank you for this.  The Bible is timeless and always pertinent, exhorts us to be "good stewards'.  Those that heed the meanings deep in there which are obvious to those who have faith, insight and gifts of the spirit will be surviving just fine.  Whereas those that are stubbornly blind will not get the point, they will continue to place their worship on their own selfish desires, their desire to have more, consume more, worship cinema stars, sitcoms, latest fashions, be adulated themselves, needing to have the 'biggest' and more than their neighbors, they will continue to mess up our lovely home, our earth and their own lives. 

Per "Gr8152" in "comments" section:

By far the largest source of world oil consumption is to make gasoline for cars. There are now over 500,000,000 cars in the world. Cars are easily the world's largest source of land, air and water pollution, not only from the gasoline to drive them, which is made from oil, but also from the mining of the earth to make metals to build them, which heavily pollutes river waters worldwide. The trucks, jets and ships used to transport automobiles around the world burns astronomical amounts of gasoline/oil.

The U.S. rate of oil consumption is roughly 20 million barrels PER DAY, and world oil consumption is roughly 85 million barrels per day, or 1 BILLION barrels EVERY 10 DAYS.

15-20 percent of U.S oil is consumed by the U.S. agricultural/industrial complex. Most American's, on average, get their food trucked in from 1300 miles away instead of buying it from local organic sources or growing our own. This burns massive amounts of gasoline/oil.

We have lived without cars for roughly 250,000 years since modern hominids (humans) first appeared on earth. We need to end our dependence on cars soon. The pollution to the land, air and sea...better known as our food and water supply...cannot stand much more of this poisoning.

Here's a quote from the King James version of the Christian bible, the book of Revelation, Chapter 9 verse 17-21, it seems to be concerning the appearance of automobiles shortly before Christ returns, the horseman are the drivers of automobiles, the fire in their mouths are the car engines combusting, their serpent tails are the tailpipes of the cars spewing brimstone which is exhaust fumes:

"And the number of the army of the horseman were 200,000,000: and I heard the number of them. And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of Jacinth, and BRIMSTONE: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
By these three were the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. 
For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails; for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. 
And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk. Neither they repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts." ( I believe this is the biblical description of the worldwide ecological and human damage/death being caused by cars. THE "HORSES" DESCRIBED IN THESE VERSES ARE AUTOMOBILES ).

We should all make an attempt to drive less or not drive at all if possible, also buying local/organic food which is not transported from thousands of miles away which burns massive amounts of gas/oil. Buy from your local farmer's market or grow your own. Avoid using plastic, if possible, plastic is made from oil. There is now a plastic debris field in the middle of the Pacific Ocean THE SIZE OF TEXAS. Write to your state senators and representatives and ask that they mandate the manufacture and sales of bio-plastics made from organic corn or other organic vegetable matter to stop global plastic pollution. Corn/vegetable based bioplastics degrade and break down quickly when thrown out.

Here is another quote from the King James bible chapter, the book of Revelation, chapter 18 verse 23: 

"And the light of the candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for your MERCHANTS were the great men of the earth; for by THEIR sorceries were all nations deceived."
