A Minor Setback


This morning I heard about the Gulf leakage and I was quite stunned to hear that petroleum was polluting the ocean areas, affecting all marine life. What hit me the most was seeing lifeless jellyfish on the surface, but not only is it affecting fishes it was also affecting people in general. Like restaurants, fishermen, and transportation of produce. If fishes are polluted than they are pretty much useless because if the public consumes these fish then they will be in a high risk of getting sick. If fish become contaminated, then there will eventually be a shortage of fish. This makes it more costly. The only possible way of getting hold of fish is buying elsewhere. This will make it hard for those that depend on the Gulf area to support their family. As the executive of BP oil Cooperation, I am quite ashamed, but we are doing everything possible, as through taking care of the leakage clean-up. I am conscious of the damages and we will do anything possible to make things right as through paying for the clean up and paying off those who were tremendously affected. I am aware that many jobs are dependent over the sea‘s resources. This is a minor setback and will be back and running as soon as this problem settles down. I hope this inconvenience does not encourage any type of negative action. Although, I might admit the thought of losing everything will potentially harm a person’s self control, as through increase of crime, suicide, emotional brake down, and so on. These damages can’t be undone. We’re doing everything possible to make things right. Like I said before, I am sorry for the inconvenience.
