Title: Predictions and the Truth
Topic: Environmental Issues

Discussed by Katie Tubb
with The Heritage Foundation (www.Heritage.org)

Five years ago, a blowout of BP’s Deepwater Horizon oil rig 40 miles from the Gulf Coast tragically claimed 11 lives and spilled 3 million barrels of oil from the damaged wellhead into the Gulf. It was a horrific accident that caused substantial damage to the ecology and commerce of the region. It’s hard to forget the video images of thick oil day after day gushing into the region’s waters.

The MSM and environmentalists around the globe predicted that this incident would be the end of business in the Gulf. Katie Tubb, with The Heritage Foundation, explains some of the predictions and what is really happening now, five years later. She says, “Tourism is moving forward and fisheries have also recovered… While everything is not perfect, recovery is happening much faster than the 40 years it was predicted.”

Time after time, Mother Nature has proven that she is a lot stronger than we give her credit for. She is not as fragile as the MSM and the environmentalists would have us believe. She picks herself up and moves on. It’s time the MSM does the same.
