Oil Spill Cleanup through Bioremediation
Just watched a youtube video on how oil eating microbes would help the crisis in the gulf. I just want to know WHY this has not been done already? What is our government waiting for? It sounds like a great solution to me! Here is the link
Microbes
The youtube video is featured on the right side of their site.

Re: Oil Spill Cleanup through Bioremediation
Actually, that happens naturally. I read that each year, thousands of barrels of oil just naturally leak into the gulf, but the microbes take care of it.
The concern is that with all of this excess food, the microbes will naturally replicate exponentially and use up all the oxygen. The oil will be gone, but so will every single living thing in the gulf....
