Gulf oil spill : Lessons learned and ignored

     A year after one of the worlds biggest oil spills we are still wondering if this could happen again. Still a year passed and not a single law has been passed and not a single law has passed to make drilling safer. The world currently burns through 88.5 billion barrels of oil a day, and most is off shore and deep waters. I agree with Steve Levine in that instead of giving companies fines that they can afford we should make make them "company-ending" events. Becoming a new mother is making me become more aware and passionate about the environment and what i can do to help.
