    Exclamation Gulf oil full of methane

    " NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- It is an overlooked danger in oil spill crisis: The crude gushing from the well contains vast amounts of natural gas that could pose a serious threat to the Gulf of Mexico's fragile ecosystem.

    The oil emanating from the seafloor contains about 40 percent methane, compared with about 5 percent found in typical oil deposits, said John Kessler, a Texas A&M University oceanographer who is studying the impact of methane from the spill.

    That means huge quantities of methane have entered the Gulf, scientists say, potentially suffocating marine life and creating "dead zones" where oxygen is so depleted that nothing lives.

    "This is the most vigorous methane eruption in modern human history," Kessler said."

    Well, I think we all new that the methane from this thing is a big issue, but I think 40% is a much greater amount than anyone anticipated. It is quite obvious that this is not going to be plugged by human hands, and if this much methane continues to flow at that rate, then we may assume the worst. I don't think I need to emphasize that methane is an asphyxiant, is explosive, and is a very effective greenhouse gas.

    "Methane (CH4) is a greenhouse gas that remains in the atmosphere for approximately 9-15 years. Methane is over 20 times more effective in trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide (CO2) over a 100-year period and is emitted from a variety of natural and human-influenced sources." Quoted from the EPA's website.

    This situation is becoming worse by the minute. It's amazing how many people I have discussed this with who aren't awake so to speak. They can't seem to grasp how serious this is!

    Hi Solphilos, interesting....

    With all the solar activity…greenhouse weather is the last thing we need. This could very well all be planed out. Giving the urgency of the matter and the amount of hustle that’s being displayed, it seems to be the recipe for a slow but decisive global depopulation.

    Or…

    These oil tycoons don’t know what they are doing or have a clue what the end result will be. From what I’ve heard, they don’t even know why the oil looks like blood, and they did poor math on the pressure and the amount of methane gas spewing out. I can kind of understand why there is so much pressure; it’s possible that this reservoir is mostly filled with gas. This looks like someone put a small hole in a bicycle tire, as the hole expands the integrity of the whole container is at risk of crumbling slowly or dramatically like a popped balloon.

    This is probably the deepest they/we ever drilled and I can’t help but feel a sea bed collapse is imminent. The amount of water and land sitting on top of the leaking cavity will crush it and/or fill it. Either way this leak will trigger some other catastrophe. The leak is shooting out rocks and dirt too, so the cavity walls are not only weakening, they are probably widening as well.

    Staying optimistic about this whole thing is challenging, there is just too much secrecy, and that tends to make the mind wonder, as we all can see us doing…

    The planet will probably never forgive us for this. Especially, if we go back to using oil and oil base products after this incident. People can argue that they are not literately involved…but if we keep supporting the life style, then we are feeding the devil…

    This will probably be our only real opportunity to starve the greedy bastard. Lets stop the hypocrisy in our democracy.

    Peace

    Check out this thread over at GLP:

    It's about the theory that the oil may be radioactive. It makes a lot of sense to me, and would piece together a lot of loose ends that I've been researching, but I hope
    that it is not true.

    that's strange, I was just discussing with someone that Thorium reactors need to be built instead of nuclear reactors because the waste breaks down in under 100 years instead of thousands...

    if the well is leaking 2.5M gallons of oil/day - 4 Billion cubic Feet of Natural gas / day - 2 Billion cubic feet of methane each day along with a mixture of Thorium and Uranium it really could power our country for years...

    they say at this rate this well could run for over 30 years...


    The relief drilling is under 200 feet from the main they might be in a position to plug the leaking one the first week of July


    do any of us think for a moment that they aren't going to try and capture what is available in this well?
    Coincidence or Destiny, it's all in the art of knowing.... III IIII charts ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Now more than everyour assistance is needed with focused prayers and connecting to the Light energy

    Ask for Divine assistance to cease the flow of oil in the Gulfto return the area to balanced condition. Include the marine animals to be held in Divine healing hands of Light.


    NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE GULF OF MEXICO

    YOUR IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE IS REQUESTED

    The recent oil spill in the Gulf is escalating with catastrophic vulnerability concerning the wellhead. Experts say a huge and very toxic gas bubble has formed and extreme pressure is building - fissures have already developed. They are predicting real possibility of volcanic like explosion producing tsunami and other major events.



    VOLCANIC TSUNAMI AND POISON GAS ALERT

    In these next few weekswe will experience extremely powerful energy especially with the astro alignmentssolstice and eclipses.

    Now more than everyour assistance is needed with focused prayers and connecting to the Light energy. Ask for Divine assistance to cease the flow of oil in the Gulfto return the area to balanced condition. Include the marine animals to be held in Divine healing hands of Light.

    Please ask everyone around you and network groups to assist in combining this focus starting NOW connecting to the Universal energies.

    PROFESSOR EMOTO:
    A friend just sent me the followingwhich she has just received -
    It is 'straight from the horse's mouthand I want to share with you because it is so focusing for our energies in
    Response to the Gulf tragedy and is so powerful for healing the waters and its inhabitants -

    Today at our church we read a letter from Dr. Masaru Emoto who many of you will recognize as the scientist from Japan who has done all the research and publications about the characteristics of water. Among other thingshis research revealed that water physically responds to emotions.
    Right nowmost of us have the predominantly angry emotion when we consider what is happening in the Gulf. And while certainly we are justified in that emotionwe may be of greater assistance to our planet and its life formsif we sincerelypowerfully and humbly pray the prayer that Dr Emotohimselfhas proposed.

    PRAYER:
    "I send the energy of love and gratitude to the water and all the living creatures
    In the Gulf of Mexico and its surroundings.
    To the whalesdolphinspelicansfishshellfishplanktonscorals algaeand
    All living creatures . . . I am sorry.
    Please forgive me.
    Thank you.
    I love you. "

    I am passing this request to people who I believe might be willing to participate in this prayerto set an intention of love and healing that is so largeso overwhelming that we can perform a miracle in the Gulf of Mexico.
    We are not powerless. We are powerful. Our united energyspeaking this prayer daily...multiple times daily....can literally shift the balance of destruction that is happening.
    We don't have to know how......we just have to recognize that the power of love is greater than any power active in the Universe today.

    Please join - repeating this healing prayer of Dr. Emoto's.
    And feel free to copy and paste this to send it around the planet.
    Let's take chargeand do our own clean up!

    Your focus is alignmed to Divine Will and the highest good of all concerned.

    THANK YOU FOR SENDING THIS MESSAGE TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE
    [B][COLOR="red"][FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]In the end, what is true will come to be known. The truth always appears eventually, despite all efforts to hide it. It is impossible to keep something secret forever[/FONT][/COLOR][/B]
