The Amount Of Neurotoxin Pesticide Corexit Sprayed By BP Tops 1 Million Gallons

If you live where they are spraying this stuff, get out of there.

What are the Chronic Health effects of Corexit?

Here are some of the highlights from the MSDS for the active ingredient (2-butoxyethanol) – of Corexit (up to 60% by volume)

Severe over-exposure can result in death.
MUTAGENIC EFFECTS: Mutagenic for bacteria and/or yeast.
The substance may be toxic to blood, kidneys, liver, central nervous system (CNS).
Repeated or prolonged exposure to the substance can produce target organs damage.
Repeated exposure to highly (this) toxic material may produce general deterioration of health by an accumulation in one or many human organs.
Hazardous in case of skin contact (permeator), of ingestion, of inhalation.
May cause adverse reproductive effects (maternal and paternal fertility, fetoxicity)
May cause birth defects (teratogenic)
May cause cancer (tumorigenic)
Penetrates intact skin easily and can cause systemic effects and central nervous system depression
Inhalation: May cause irritation of the respiratory tract. May affect behavior (analgesia), behavior/central nervous system (headache, drowsiness, dizzness, stuttering, coma, weakness, ataxia, slurred speech, loss of coordination and judgement, personality changes, analgesia, blurred vision, tremor, excitement, somnolence), sense organs, the gastrointestinal tract (nausea, vomiting), metabolism (metabolic acidosis), respiration (dyspnea), urinary system (kidneys – hematuria, albuminuria, polyuria, oliguria, renal failure), liver (liver damage).
Exposure to high vapor concentration may also cause corneal or lens opacity of the eyes.
Ingestion: Causes gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. May affect behavior/central

nervous system (see inhalation), respiration (dyspnea), metabolism, cardiovascular system.

Chronic Potential Health Effects: Inhalation and Ingestion: Prolonged or repeated inhalation or ingestion may affect the liver, blood (changes in red blood cell count, pigmented or nucleated red blood cells, microcytosis with or without anemia, erythropenia, reticulocytosis, granulocytosis, leukocytosis), urinary system (kidneys -hematuria), metabolism (weight loss), endocrine system (spleen, thymus, pancreas). Prolonged or repeated inhalation of high concentrations may also cause lung hemmorrhage, congestion, bronchopneumonia.
Classified in Canada as CLASS D-1A: Material causing immediate and serious toxic effects (VERY TOXIC).
Classified in Canada as CLASS D-2B: Material causing other toxic effects (TOXIC)
What does the EPA say about the human health effects expected as a result of using the dispersants?

Why isn't the media releasing this information?

Read the affects of this stuff. Why are they still using it?

No one has reported it because no one believes it.

No one believes that the government would do this, explicitly or implicitly, to the people...

No one is going to believe it until people are dying quickly, by the thousands, and after hundreds of thousands, possibly millions have already been exposed.

One out of 1000 are awake. The rest are sleeping soundly and won't wake up until a nuclear blast goes off in their living rooms, disabling the t.v.

I knew the stuff was bad, but when I saw this...I had to stop reading for a while to take it all in. I can't f-ing believe my eyes. What about the exposure to children! Not to mention the sea food that is so called "safe to eat".

I have seen some posts here about radioactivity from the spill. What is that from. Hmmm, I almost don't want to know. If you do please explain. thanks

How can they say ANY area is safe to fish in the Gulf? There is no way to test sea life for all possible toxins.

NO WAY...

Let's do the math...

Let's say 1 million gallons for three months Apr 20 (Hitler's Birthday) to July 20 (we're not there yet).

That's 4 million gallons a year.

Now multiply that by 30 years...

30 * 4 = 120 million gallons of TOTALLY TOXIC POISONS in addition to the 100's of millions of gallons of volcanic oil/methane/benezene/etc... and what do we get?

Population reduction from 7 billion to 500 million (as per the Georgia Guide Stones.


Not bad, heh?

Right on the fucken money, if you ask me.

OMG!!

CORRECTION

Please change:

(as per the Georgia Guide Stones.

to read:

(as per the Georgia Guide Stones).

And also please change:

30 * 4 = 120 million gallons of TOTALLY TOXIC POISONS in addition to the 100's of millions of gallons of volcanic oil/methane/benezene/etc... and what do we get?

to read:

30 * 4 = 120 million gallons of TOTALLY TOXIC POISONS in addition to the 100's of billions of gallons of volcanic oil/methane/benezene/etc... and what do we get?

(Or trillions of gallons (your choice)).

Thank you.

Ah, why don't we make that...

30 * 4 = 120 million gallons of TOTALLY TOXIC POISONS in addition to the 100's of BILLIONS of gallons of volcanic oil/methane/benezene/etc... and what do we get?

(Or TRILLIONS of gallons (your choice)).

I think these may be some of the Toxic compounds found in Corexit. It's a long lis of info. Lists of ecotoxicy.

Well, I think that pretty much screws the gulf seafood industry for a few generations. Thanks again BP!

Okay...

Let's go with this...

Fuck the billions of gallons, and let's stay with the trillions of gallons (if not a lot more than that).

In short folks...

WE ARE FUCCKEDED!!!

I screwed that up...

I simply meant to say that:

WE ARE FUCKED!

(That is all)

In a pinned thread I read today, that BP worker said they were going to work for 2 to 5 years...how about the next 25

Think about the pharmacuticals that come from the Gulf.

"Bastard Petroleum" Amazon books

If our beloved corporations are hard at work solving these vital problems, there is no need for these uninformed "residents" to question the great progress that our great corporations are making.

This thread should be submitted to the Department of Homeland Security and the Patriot Act should be summarily Enabled to determined who these uninformed "residents" are, and they should be subject to loyalty tests to determine whether they are true Americans.

These poor kids. If they had tar balls on them they had exposure to corexit. Who will help them? I am sickened. Is this just a bad dream. I am wanting to wake up now.....

Toxicity research has taught us that children are not simply small adults and are already extremely vulnerable to the adverse effects of chemicals. Exposure to environmental chemicals is magnified as children consume more food and water and breathe more air than adults. Children also play close to the ground where contaminants settle and continuously engage in hand-to-mouth behavior, exposing themselves to a vast array of toxins.

Lukemia?

Corexit. It is good for you. It builds healthy amerikans. Think of it as flouride for your body. BP and your governments would not do anything to hurt you, only to help you be strong. Maybe there are vitimens in it, or they are secretly saving your life, sort of like a vaccination without panic. Just stay out of direct contact, it must work by breathing the freshness of corexit. The rest of the world is happy for you and that you are getting corexit in your diet. We love amerikans, and BP and your government does too. So stop complaining. Be happy, watch your tv, listen to the fox news. They will tell you the truth, and Obama would not hurt you.

It is beyond my comprehension why people are letting their children go into the Gulf water.

Have we turned into a nation of brainless fools?

.

WHY???
The corexit is free, no one has to pay to swim in it! BP and your tax money pay for it, swim as much as you like in it, as long as there are no signs saying not to, swim, play in it.

ITS FREE!!!

They already said on FOX news it was 1.5 million gallons used...and that was about a WEEK ago.

Your info is old.

Dont worry BP wont run out! They can get it from other countries if they need extra to save amerika from the oil spill! The world loves you! They want you to have as much corexit until the oil isnt bothering you anymore.

I heard a lawyer, who is suing BP, say something REALLY interesting about the use of Corexit. He said that BP is trying to amoritize, or spread out over YEARS, any clean up costs. Corexit makes that oil disperse and sink, and that's why it's been slow in coming ashore. It's the same thing with the 20 billion damage fund. That, too, is spread out over YEARS.
