In light of the recent oil spill in California, it’s time it’s governor Jerry Brown and the world comes to know about a solution that has been proven to quickly and effectively clean up oil spills. As will be explained, this solution has already been proven safe and effective and at a price far lower than conventional synthetic dispersants.
First, a little explanation of what these microbes are and how they
help to clean up oil spills. According to the State of Texas General
Land Office, microbes are bacteria that exist everywhere in nature and
certain ones naturally feed off hydrocarbons, or oil, and create a
mineralized byproduct that is healthy and safe for marine life to
consume.
In the fall of 1989, the Texas General Land Office funded a test to
reveal just how effective these microbes were at cleaning up oil. An
official video on this test from the Texas General Land Office can be
seen here, which goes into more detail on the parameters of the test as well as the truly remarkable results.
Synchronistically,
just months later the Mega Borg oil tanker caught fire in the Gulf of
Mexico where oil began leaking and continued for eight days. Texas Land
Commissioner Garry Mauro and the Land Office then moved to get approval
for the first open sea testing of the beneficial microbes. Over 100
pounds of the bacteria where mixed in with water and then dispersed into
the ocean for the microbes to eat and clean up the oil.
Interestingly as well, the cost was about 1/10th of the cost
compared to other clean up methods, which included several different
toxic dispersants. Results were again dramatically positive and showed
that no harmful side effects were found from the release of microbes
into the water, as stated by the Texas General Land Office.
In 1998, Garry Mauro ran for election of governor versus George W.
Bush and was defeated. With the financial interest that the Bush family
had with Halliburton and Monsanto, this cost-effective microbe solution
was quickly swept under the rug.
What
we now ask of the reader is to share this information far and wide with
intention of it reaching governor Jerry Brown of California and the California Lands Commission. We
stand at a point in our world where the scales are tipping in favor of
holistic and natural solutions. With this information reaching those in
places of certain levels of influence, together we can showcase this
beautiful solution and prove once again the effectiveness of beneficial
microbes for oil spill clean up.
With light,
