BP Ecocide v15.0: Encyclopedia of the Gulf

by vets74

Bit o' brilliance.

Katja Schulz, Species Pages Coordinator at National Museum of Natural History's
EOL

struck gold with an idea she suggested to SkyTruth.

Katja has altogether too much education and experience. She did Tree of Life work before coming to Smithsonian. (She's way too smart for web blither.) Her strategy is K.I.S.S. simple:

Build a Before/After image warehouse:

  1. Collect images of the Gulf Coast now. Identify date, time, and shooting location.
  1. Recreate the same images after ecological changes occur.

Can we call this:

EOGulf

Schulz's EOL system could support an EOGulf project. Add spacial/mapping data and adopt USCGS standards. Google/site has an EOGulf stub.

The better to prepare for corporatist denials as with Exxon Valdez and Chernobyl. Tag these crimes like it was Abu Ghraib.
