Nearly four years after BP's Deepwater Horizon oil catastrophe, plants, animals, and fish in the Gulf of Mexico are still reeling from the toxic spill, according to a report released Tuesday by the National Wildlife Federation.

The report, which arrives just ahead of the disaster's anniversary, examined 14 species of wildlife in the Gulf and found ongoing impacts of the disaster that could last for decades.

"Four years later, wildlife in the Gulf are still feeling the impacts of the spill," said Doug Inkley, senior scientist for the National Wildlife Federation. "Bottlenose dolphins in oiled areas are still sick and dying and the evidence is stronger than ever that these deaths are connected to the Deepwater Horizon. The science is telling us that this is not over."

According to the findings, in 2013 dolphins were dying at three times normal rates, with many suffering from "unusual lung damage" and immune system problems.

1. K&R!!! If you want to see what one of the biggest corporations in the world does to

corrupt our Justice system, go to Americanzombie.com. The Plaintiff's Steering Committee (PSC) appointed by Judge Barbier (his buddies) has been bribed by a $600,000,000 "Common Benefit Fund" BP set up for PSC attorneys fees and expenses. They don't get the money if the rigged Class Action Settlement doesn't go through to completion.since the time that this was set up, most of the victims have been denied or paid a small percentage of their losses with no right to take BP to trial.
This site shows emails filled with self dealing and corruption.
