BP continued to use toxic dispersants even after they were ordered to stop by the EPA
Hey Adjusters!
No one really knows how many millions of gallons of the dispersant Corexit were used, but it’s a massive problem. Some scientists are speculating that we’ll see harmful effects for decades, as this dispersant can cause toxic rain. The chemicals in Corexit were kept secret from the public, and we really had no say regarding the application of these toxins. This is particularly galling for those of us in the Gulf!
