As a resident of the Gulf Coast, we all can not emphasize how important it is to get these images out and burn them into the minds of all as to just how serious this situation is for the ecology and the economy of our entire region - from Texas to Florida. The more creative ways we can juxtapose the stunning reality with the blinders BP has on itself (and is trying to impose Soviet-style on the media) - the better. Great work NRDC!
