  1. Here's a taste of what I have in MY archives...

    "In the months leading up to the #BP #OilSpill, Mr. Rich was also a legislative affairs consultant for another firm called 'Kissel E & S Associates.' When I happened to google 'Kissel E&S Associates, Clinton', one of the front page results led to a University of Nebraska paper, and written during #HillaryClinton 's tenure as Secretary of State. This paper is titled 'Conflicts in the Licensing Process for #TransCanada's #KeystoneXL Pipeline.' The Keystone XL Pipeline is one of the MANY positions on which Hillary Clinton has flip-flopped on. Could Mr. Rich have dissented with some very powerful oil company interests who were looking to negotiate a backroom deal with the #DNC."

    Hmmmm....

  7. #Russia suffering '#EnvironmentalCatastrophe' after #OilSpill in #KerchStrait

    Joshua Cheetham, Olga Robinson & Matt Murphy, January 23, 2025

    "Satellite images reviewed by BBC Verify have shown a major oil slick spreading across the Kerch Strait that separates Russia from annexed #Crimea, a month after two oil tankers were badly damaged in the #BlackSea.

    "Oil has leaked into the strait from two ships which ran into trouble during bad weather on 15 December. Volgoneft-239 ran aground following the storm, while Volgoneft-212 sank.

    ​​"Up to 5,000 tonnes of oil has now leaked, and media reports and official statements analysed by BBC Verify suggest the spill has spread across the Black Sea and the #SeaOfAzov.

    "A senior Russian scientist called the spill the country's worst '#EnvironmentalCatastrophe' of the 21st Century.

    "'This is the first time fuel oil has been spilled in such quantities,' Viktor Danilov-Danilyan - the head of science at the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) - said in a 17 January interview with a Russian newspaper.

    "Russian scientists said in December that this spill could be more than twice the size of a similar disaster in the strait in 2007, which saw up to 1,600 tonnes of #HeavyOil leak into the sea. #Ukraine's ministry of #ecology has estimated that the clear up from the latest spill could cost the Russian state up to $14bn (£11.4bn).

    "#PaulJohnston, a scientist at #GreenpeaceResearchLaboratories, said 'there's always an element of uncertainty around oil spills', but a lack of timely information has heightened this uncertainty further.

    "'I'm not entirely optimistic we'll ever know the full extent of the problem,' he added.

    "Satellite images reviewed by #BBCVerify on 10 January - the most recent available high-resolution photos - showed a #MassiveOilSlick running through the strait, measuring at least 25km (15 miles) long. A second, smaller slick measuring around 5.7km (3.5 miles) long is also visible."
