you seem to hold a vast amount of knowledge with regard to marine life. What would you do to keep the oil out of the marshes?

Honestly at this point its too late....Sad, but unfortunately the reality we now face. Maybe there is a solution out there, but from what I have been reading the oil is already in the marsh. Any solutions take too long to implement, thereby adding more oil to the system.
Best answer, sad as it sounds......time. But I know there are people smarter than me working on this, so hopefully they can find an ace up their sleeve.

Thanks for the response. I agree that this type effort should have started when they first discovered the leak.

exactly, this seems like more political CYA type stuff, then actual solutions.

It seems to me that they could identify some critical points of entry into the marsh and really focus hard on those areas. I would think that some more significant booms coupled by followed by some kind of vacuum vessel would provide significant protection. I know that the beach at Grand isle is nice but it's gotta be much less impactful and certainly way easier to clean up. And the marsch grass that is directly facing the gulf is going to be nearly impossible to protect anyway so just focus on those critical points of entry...at least that's what I would do.
