It's on the front page of just about every major paper each day and still leads the nightly news--the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. After more than two months of oil gushing into the Gulf, tempers are flaring, local businesses are failing, the environment's taking a beating, politicians are posturing, and all that most of us can do is watch the videos of the leak and shake our heads and wonder how could this have happened?
Well, that's that we're going to talk about in this study. What happened? Why can't it be stopped? Could it have been avoided? What will be the ultimate impact of this huge environmental disaster?What are BP, the government, and environmentalists saying about the significance of this event? What are churches saying about the role we all play in contributing to a world economy that relies so heavily on cheap oil?
There are many issues to consider, but this study will help us keep things in perspective in the months and years to come as we deal with the aftermath of this disaster.
