Someone better check out the safety of oil industries, production and transport in the Caribbean region: before it’s too late.
Today many news outlets are covering the success of the US space program with focus on the shuttle. Ironically I find it absolutely amazing that we can fly too and from outer space, yet we can’t plug a hole in de ground (noting the oil spill off the US coast).
Just for one minute imagine how we in the Caribbean region would be impacted if a similar thing occurred off our shores. Our tourism and fishing industries would be crippled if not destroyed, not to mention the money we don’t have for clean up efforts.
As a region we better check out any coast line oil production and transport, noting how close in proximity many Caribbean nations are relatively speaking.
With all BP’s record profits in recent years clearly not enough was put into ensuring safe and environmentally friendly innovation and research. BP has become to the environment what firms like Goldman Sachs was to the financial crisis, “Too big to fail” has been extended to “Too rich to be held accountable”.
