I think the governors of all gulf states need to say “FUBO” and start dredging RIGHT NOW to protect what is not already damaged in their waterways to prevent that crap from pushing inland when it arrives.

Keep lots of cameras and media on hand to show the world when the feds try to come in and stop the dredging.

Mangroves are ugly and stink but that’s where the fish and other critters spawn. So their health is very important to the oceans health. Oil is reaching into the Louisiana mangroves or their equivalent of them. It will kill off spawning grounds. That’s what so evil about this spill. Young creatures are always more vulnerable to toxins etc than adults
