then the country should cease to exist considering all the spills and all the irreversible damage. Occasionally we have a failure on a site that allows oil to flow out the flare stack. can't burn it off fast enough so it will blow out the flare stack. If it's windy it will blow a mist off the site. Which means often times onto farmers fields. the next year he has the best crop where the mist was lol. It's crazy. There is also oil eating bacteria that will clean up oil in water. Another way we can deal with it is to burn it off. A month or so we had a pipeline rupture and oil ran into a ravine and down into a pond. ground was frozen. so they burnt it all off. I'll bet you next july if you come look you'll never know it happened.
