BP Oil Well Cap Sparks New Environmental Crisis ScrappleFace News Fairly Unbalanced. We Report. You Decipher. By Scott Ott on U.S. News (2010-06-05) — Just hours after BP succeeded in capping its leaking well at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) today announced that the petroleum giant had created a new, and perhaps more devastating, threat to the environment. “BP is now siphoning oil from the spill site to the surface,” said an unnamed EPA spokesman, “and our worst fears have been realized. This petroleum will soon be shipped to refineries, and eventually transformed into combustible products which will spew deadly toxins into the atmosphere, exacerbating the grave and gathering threat of global climate change.” The EPA source said rising sea levels from global warming could push Gulf oil slicks and tar balls deep inland, threatening states like Missouri, North Dakota and Alberta. Meanwhile, President Obama has ordered the Justice Department to begin a criminal investigation against BP, Halliburton, and Transocean for “conspiracy to commit climate change” under the guise of stopping an oil spill. .
