  • 23 July 2010. Barataria Bay near Grand Isle, Louisiana. <br />
A 'floatel' passes by heading inland away from the coast as tropical storm 'Bonnie' threatens the Gulf of Mexico. BP contractors prefer to house clean up crew workers in these floating container motels to save a few lousy dollars rather than station workers on land where they would benefit the local economy. Already reeling from poor decisions and an economic and environmental disaster thanks to BP's catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the corporation continues to oversee economic devastation wreaked on local communities. Private contractors continue to get rich taking BP's cash as local economies flounder. 'Floatels' do not benefit local communities in any way. BP contractors bring all food and supplies to the 'floatels.' In an area both economically and ecologically devastated by BP, this would appear to be yet another slap in the face to struggling local economies - and all to save a few bucks to make a few contractors even wealthier than they already are! This should be a national disgrace. <br />

  • 21 August 2010. East Grand Terre Island, south Louisiana. <br />
Digging for oil. Government scientists from NOAA, EPA and BP scour the newly created sand berms where the Gulf of Mexico meets Barataria Bay. The scientists are searching for oil and taking samples back for analysis where the joint findings are analysed. The controversial new 'islands' are part of a grander scheme to boost efforts to save the wetlands. To date the islands have done a good job taking on oil, preventing a great deal of it from entering the Bay beyond.<br />

One of just a handful of shrimp boats, laden with nets instead of oil boom returns to fishing as the worst environmental disaster in US history continues to unfold in south Louisiana. Many shrimpers have not returned to work thanks in part to regular pay from contractors working the BP clean up operation. The disaster has taken a heavy toll on fishing. Processing plants remain closed and BP has leased many boat slips and fish landing sites that have been converted into BP oil response staging areas.<br />

  • 23 July 2010. Cat Islands. Barataria Bay near Grand Isle, Louisiana. <br />
Has mother nature naturally cleaned up the oil spill with human help? Young immature pelicans rest on one of the Cat islands near Grand Isle. In what would appear to be good news for the area, the pelicans and boom are clean. A sweep through Barataria bay uncovered only two oiled pelicans. No tar balls or oil were seen in the water. Many of the marsh grasses appeared to be growing back. Perhaps the area is witnessing the beginning of the end of the disaster from BP's massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico? It will be many years before the long term effects of the spill are known and a tropical storm or hurricane could still bring large slicks of oil ashore. For now though, the situation looks relatively good.<br />

  • 12 june 2010. Wetlands of Plaquemines Parish, South Louisiana. <br />
Vanishing wetlands. Where once there was land, there is only the mere outline of old canals and channels, many dug by oil companies to pump their product ashore with little regard to the effects the chopping up of the wetlands would have. Chronic erosion of the land, a football pitch every 50 minutes, greatly reduced protection from hurricanes and impending BP oil slicks is the direct result of mismanagement and utter disregard for the environment. The army corps of engineers and the oil companies, together with inept government have a great deal to answer for. <br />
View from a blackhawk helicopter flown by airmen of the Nebraska Air National Guard over southern Louisiana as they assist in the dumping of sand bags onto barrier islands in a vain attempt to prevent BP oil from getting into the inner  wetlands. As valiant as their efforts are, the dumping of sand bags may well prove to be a complete waste of manpower, resources and money. Meanwhile, the mighty Mississippi river runs straight out to sea nearby, her valuable land building sediment carried far out into deep ocean as the region struggles to find a way to reverse the disastrous effects of man's interference with her flow. <br />

Vanishing wetlands. Where once there was land, there is only the mere outline of old canals and channels, many dug by oil companies to pump their product ashore with little regard to the effects the chopping up of the wetlands would have. Chronic erosion of the land, a football pitch every 50 minutes, greatly reduced protection from hurricanes and impending BP oil slicks is the direct result of mismanagement and utter disregard for the environment. The army corps of engineers and the oil companies, together with inept government have a great deal to answer for. <br />
View from a blackhawk helicopter flown by airmen of the Nebraska Air National Guard over southern Louisiana as they assist in the dumping of sand bags onto barrier islands in a vain attempt to prevent BP oil from getting into the inner  wetlands. As valiant as their efforts are, the dumping of sand bags may well prove to be a complete waste of manpower, resources and money. Meanwhile, the mighty Mississippi river runs straight out to sea nearby, her valuable land building sediment carried far out into deep ocean as the region struggles to find a way to reverse the disastrous effects of man's interference with her flow. <br />

  • 06 June 2010. Barataria Bay to Grand Isle, Jefferson/Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. <br />
Oil soaked boom floats close to Grand Isle. The ecological and economic impact of BP's oil spill is devastating to the region. Oil from the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe is evading booms laid out to stop it thanks in part to the dispersants which means the oil travels at every depth of the Gulf and washes ashore wherever the current carries it. The Louisiana wetlands produce over 30% of America's seafood and are the most fertile of their kind in the world.<br />

Oil soaked boom lies uselessly on oil soaked beaches on a small island in the Cat Island chain in Barataria Bay. Just one week ago the island was crowded with sea birds. Today it is abandoned by them as oil drenches their habitat. The ecological and economic impact of BP's oil spill is devastating to the region.

Oil soaked boom is all that protects the Cat Island chain in Barataria Bay, home to thousands of nesting birds including the Louisiana brown pelican, a bird only recently removed from the endangered species list. The birds are attempting to rear their young with the threat of oil pouring into their habitat.  The ecological and economic impact of BP's oil spill is devastating to the region.

  • 07 June 2010. Pointe aux Chenes, Louisiana.<br />
Fading away. Fisherman and local Pointe aux Chenes Indians take a 40 hour Hazardous waste operation class in order to get certification to work for BP as sub contractors cleaning up oil. The isolated town of Pointe Aux Chenes clings to the little land that remains along the bayous and waterways of southern Louisiana. Oil washes up on the  marsh grasses just south of tribal homes. If the grass dies, there is nothing left to hold the land. All of this was solid ground just 100 years ago. Diversion of the mighty Mississippi River diverted sediment from the wetlands and deposited precious land building material deep out at sea.  At present, all these fishing grounds are closed. Members of the Pointe aux Chenes Indians, settlers that can trace their roots beyond 5 generations back to France face extinction of their very way of life, their very existence. French cajun is the language of the elders, but is dying out in the children of today. BP's catastrophic oil spill threatens everything, their way of life and the land on which they live. Not recognised by the federal government, the 680 member tribe struggles for funds in a small community that survives only because of fishing and oil extraction in the Gulf of Mexico.<br />

Louisiana born and raised Justin Workmon collects an oil sample from the eerily empty ocean where water that would ordinarily be crystal clear but is now gravy coloured thanks to dispersed oil just off Grand Terre Island where Barataria Bay meets the Gulf of Mexico. Ordinarily the ocean would be filled with shrimp boats, sport fishermen, and sea birds, especially in the run up to memorial day weekend. The ecological and economic impact are devastating to the region. Oil from the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe is evading booms laid out to stop it thanks in part to the dispersants which means the oil travels at every depth of the Gulf and washes ashore wherever the current carries it.

A natural gas platform. The fragile grass lands perched at the mouth of mississippi delta is all that seperates land from the Gulf of Mexico. The region is strategically vital to the American oil and gas industry and a major player in America's seafood industry. BP's catastrophic oil spill continues to spew a black tide of death which continues to encroach upon everything in the region. The economic impact is devastating with shrimp boats tied up, vacation rentals and charter boat fishing trips are cancelled. The only real business is cleaning up big oil's disasterous screw up.
