Why dispersant use is a big mistake: Gulf oil leak |
| It is like adding massive amounts of anti
freeze (ethylene glycol) to the oil The worst component of dispersants is often glycol ether such as 2-butoxyethanol. It will add a lot of carbons & hydrogens to the water, too and maybe suffocate the sea life eventually. But first it will cause the immune system to turn autoimmune. This is the worst possible thing to do. For sick workers doing cleanup look for blood in urine as one of the signs of hemolytic anemia. These may die if it is not realized that the red blood cells are dying off too soon (cause of weakness) & there is risk for organs shutting down. Any time you hear of 'flu symptoms' suspect glycol ether poisoning (not a virus) http://www.valdezlink.com/re/gulf/health/5-26-10.htm CBS comment 6-4-10 http://www.valdezlink.com/re/gulf/why.htm Next time, "Don't let Exxon run the show" http://www.valdezlink.com/inipol/pages/run.htm What happened to the 1000 young men who worked with dispersant cleanup in EVOS? Was it the anti-freeze in the dispersants that the school of herring ran into in 1993 in Prince Wm Sound, Alaska? http://www.valdezlink.com/evos/herring.htm#of alternate: * Why have the herring not recovered? That is a question that
haunts scientists to this day * http://www.pwssc.org Worse than the oil spill is the use of the dispersants that are so strong in glycol ether. Not yet recognized, it is glycol ether that causes flu symptoms Exposure to glycol ether + anemia signs (NOT a virus). It is the cause of most military syndromes, CFIDS, CFS, FM. It causes a body to turn autoimmune and the weakness sick workers are describing is the red blood cells dying off prematurely. There will be blood in urine, if so. AIHA is the fatigue doctors are looking for in the CFS type symptoms. Too many things start going autoimmune at once, and the numbers don't mean what doctors think they do. Please pass this on to any doctors in the area, and hope the wind doesn't blow in your direction. http://www.valdezlink.com/re/gulf/why.htm All ingredients should be disclosed, and doctors must be told, if they suspect it is a cause of a patient's illness. There are laws that need to be changed, by the way. 6-1-10 |
RCAC Position: "NO dispersants to be used in Prince William Sound!" 3-6-2006
Why have the herring not revived after the 1993 collapse (lost 80%) in Prince William Sound, Alaska *
Why do men have reduced sperm, spontaneous infertility? What helps? *
