Marea nera, BP passa al piano D mentre gli uccelli continuano a morire (fotogallery)

marea nera 5

I primi tre tentativi di tappare la falla nel Golfo del Messico sono falliti miseramente. Per questo, viste le prime buone notizie che arrivano dal cosiddetto “piano D”, la BP ci pensa bene prima di cantar vittoria. L’operazione è stata soprannominata “cut and cup”, cioè taglia e tappa, e consiste nel tagliare la sommità del tubo da cui fuoriescono ogni giorno tra i 15 e i 19 mila barili di petrolio, per poi attaccare (in modo più stabile rispetto al tentativo precedente) un tubo che permetta di convogliare il flusso nel serbatoio di una petroliera. In questo modo la falla diventerebbe più facilmente gestibile e si potrebbe tappare con una nuova cupola sistemata con più calma.

Fino a questo momento, dicono gli ingegneri della BP, si è riuscito a recuperare l’equivalente di mille barili, poco rispetto alla quantità persa, ma un buon inizio, anche se per avere un’idea più completa bisognerà aspettare 48 ore. Nel frattempo però monta la furia di Obama.

Il presidente degli Stati Uniti si è scagliato contro il colosso britannico in quanto ha appena reso noto di aver distribuito i dividendi tra gli azionisti per miliardi di dollari (si parla di una produzione annua di circa 16 miliardi), ma nel frattempo i risarcimenti alle popolazioni colpite vengono elargiti con il contagocce. La Casa Bianca ha presentato ieri un primo conto dei danni che ammonta a 69 milioni di dollari (circa 56 milioni di euro), spesi dal governo per la lotta contro la marea nera. Ma secondo le prime stime, il disastro è costato un miliardo di dollari, che salirebbe fino a 20 miliardi comprendendo le spese di ripulitura ed i risarcimenti ai pescatori e all’industria turistica successivi alla risoluzione del problema.

E mentre la BP cerca di attuare già un piano E (evidentemente non si fidano nemmeno della soluzione attuata in questi giorni), gli animali continuano a morire. Entro metà agosto la compagnia britannica ha intenzione di scavare altri due pozzi di petrolio nelle vicinanze di quello incendiato, in maniera tale da ridurre la pressione e rendere la falla più facile da tappare. Ma i miliardi di litri sputati in mare nelle ultime 6 settimane, e chissà quanti saranno quelli che verranno ancora espulsi, continuano ad uccidere migliaia di esseri viventi. E’ impossibile stimare l’impatto sui pesci, ma un’idea ce la possiamo fare sulla vita degli uccelli marini, come dimostrano queste immagini pubblicate da The Big Picture e scattate dal fotografo dell’Associated Press Charlie Riedel.

  14. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

  15. First off I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing. I have had trouble clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out there. I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints? Thanks!

  16. Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
