[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tahna Los: [QB] Omega: I don't need to mention anything further than the Oil Rig that broke up over the Atlantic, spilling tons of oil into the sea. And if that isn't an environmental disaster, I don't know what is. However, the rig was a Brazilian one, I believe. Don't think for a minute that American Rigs and refineries will never have that problem. Hydroelectric dams can also do some environmental damage as they cause flooding to habitats originally inhabited by other wildlife. Anytime man made structures are erected on wildlife it involves destruction of part or all of that habitat, as well as residual effects such as pollution and the whatnot. In the case of the oil refineries, the residual effect is the oil itself, an accident causing oil to spill out to the water table, spill over to the habitat, and poisoning whatever wildlife there is. The pipeline is not a vital concern. The rigs and refinery are. An accident over there can cause a huge environmental catastrophe, like the Rig that sank in the Atlantic. Oh, I forgot. Wildlife is not important to you. Oil is. [/QB][/QUOTE]
