US Administration Helplessly Watches Oil Slick Growing Bigger

Obama said earlier that those standing against the development of new oil fields ignored the reality since America’s foreseeable future would depend on the extraction of fuel. Today the president has to acknowledge that the launch of many oil wells will have to be delayed indefinitely.

Ecologists say, though, that the huge oil slick may find itself in the so-called gyrating current of the Gulf of Mexico near Florida. If it happens, the Florida shoreline and Florida Keys islands will be in serious danger.
