I have just come across a very intersting article about BP’s Deepwater Horizon Oil Rig.  I found the article on The New York Times Website. I would very much like to share it with you. Here is a link to it:

Workers on Doomed Rig Voiced Concern About Safety

And now there’s more, it seems.  The following is from The New York Times website, taken from an article dated Friday, 23 July 2010:

Oil Rig’s Siren Was Kept Silent, Technician Says

If I suggested it would be a good idea to build a giant incinerator in the middle of one of the most beautiful views this country can provide, you would probably think I had gone mad.

If I were to suggest it might be a good idea to spew filth over a wonderful wetland wild life centre and nature reserve, you would probably think I was dangerously psychotic.

Why is it then, I wonder, that when a company, a company named Covanta, suggests the same thing, instead of being laughed out of court they are taken seriously?   This is madness surely.

Please may I ask you to visit the Marston Moreteyne Action Group website to find out more about this scheme for a dark satanic mill in the middle of our wonderful bedfordshire countyside?  Please may I ask you to consider signing their petition to oppose it?
