Not to diminish what is happening in the gulf but check this link to see what is happening in the Yellow Sea off of China. If it be Germans well I don't care.

"We don't have proper oil cleanup materials, so our workers are wearing rubber gloves and using chopsticks,"

Huh??

I am truly sorry for their misery and deaths that have occured and the people and economy issues that will both suffer, Lord knows we have our same issues here....but

that "chopsticks" quote is one of the fricking funniest things I have heard EVER!

I'm laughing so much I honestly cannot even start to think of what they could possibly do with chopsticks in an oil spill.

"Our priority is to collect the spilled oil within five days to reduce the possibility of contaminating international waters," Dalian's vice mayor, Dai Yulin, told Xinhua on Tuesday. But an official with the State Oceanic Administration has warned the spill will be difficult to clean up even in twice that amount of time.


USA is on the 10 year plan, not 10 day plan.

China Central Television earlier reported an estimate of 1,500 tons of oil has spilled. That would amount roughly to 400,000 gallons (1,500,000 liters) — as compared with 94 million to 184 million gallons in the BP oil spill off the U.S. coast.


OK I am lost, who worse ?

Greenpeace China released photos Wednesday of inky beaches and of straw mats about 2 square meters (21 square feet) in size scattered on the sea, meant to absorb the oil.


Straw mats, wish someone here would have thought of that.
