see the damage and watch the vid here
(also for more vids on this go to youtube and type in toxic rain in their search bar to see how widespread the damage is.)
It is hard to say how long term this damage from the Oil Gusher; plus the spraying of millions...possibly billions of gallons of toxic dispersants into the Gulf waters will be.
The thermohaline current has been struggling for years now due to global warming.
Word has it that it has broken down completely since the oil gusher disaster in the Gulf.
See Life on this earth just changed
Perhaps the dying or dead thermohaline current is a good thing in a twisted sort of way.
The good news is:
This could prevent the currents from carrying those toxic dispersants all over the world.
The bad news is:
It could also prevent the watering down or thinning out of the dispersants.
This could make the rain concentrations of toxic dispersants heavier in the US southern,Midwest, and coastal states.
One thing is certain there will be consequences from this thermohaline current breaking down. The last time it happened was over 8,000 years ago right before a mini Ice age.
look here for research data regarding what this means
This Thermohaline current breakdown will mean more floods,more extra severe weather,more droughts in places,and with winter coming on.... people in certain areas are going to get the most severe of winters.
It will be like a mini ice age coming down.
(we are already seeing effects just this week New York had 100 mph winds)
