| The Macondo spill was just the latest insult to a Gulf coast already suffering from decades of oil and gas development, river diversions and Hurricane Katrina. Broadcasting from the National Council for Science and the Environment's "Our Changing Oceans" conference in Washington, DC, we'll discuss long-term restoration plans for Gulf wetlands and wildlife, and the oil's impact on human health. |
