@Leadfoot,
Almost everything you just said is complete bullshit!
All oil has been around since humans began drilling.
Have you ever tried to carbon date a rock?
The pressure of the well can build up again, they are filled with ocean water and a nasty tar sludge rises to the top..
Oil is not biodegradable, a byproduct of oil is carbon, one of the most stable and long lasting elements on the periodic table.
Carbon dioxide is toxic to our atmosphere and detrimental to life on earth..
Biodegradable means it can be broken down by nature. Carbon is what diamonds are made of. How long does it take the earth to degrade a diamond?
Please use Google before you post such ludicrous right wing nonsense.
When was the last time the earth naturally soaked birds in pure crude oil?
Please let us know.
