.@bp_america video of the hidden underwater “nightmare” BP has created

Back on May 6, I discussed how dispersants do not solve the Gulf Coast's oil problem (see "Out of Sight: BP's dispersants are toxic — but not as toxic as dispersed oil").  They do decrease the amount of oil that directly reaches the shores or the creatures that live on the shores or sea surface. But they increase the exposure to oil by creatures that live in the water or on the sea floor — like, say, shrimp or oysters.

Now, finally, we have some must-see video of the hidden underwater "nightmare" BP has created, from Good Morning America, which had the help of "Philippe Cousteau and a team of specially-trained divers":
