  5. Article on Industrial Practices (Natural News) It's true the almost five million barrels of oil that contaminated the Gulf of Mexico during the 2010 an experimental chemical dump by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and corporate giant BP? Turns out, according to new research from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Universidad Autonoma de Aguascalientes (UAA) in Mexico, the two million gallons of the dispersant Corexit which the EPA dictated had to be used to supposedly clean up the oil spill made the situation worse -- far worse. In fact, the chemicals turned the situation into nothing less than a 52 times more toxic

  6. What We Think the Government Should Do We think that the government should take a huge leap forward and create more organizations, companies, campaigns, instead of making laws. Or if you want to make laws, the government has to enforce those laws properly so every single industry understands what to do.
