Breathing the filth
Hydrocarbons in the air are more toxic than oil in the gulfhttp://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-polakovic-20100708,0,7933558,print.story "What a relief it will be when the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico gets plugged, ending the colossal mess caused by gushing crude. Or will it? Once the spill stops, oil will resume flowing as it always has, to be burned in engines, released to the sky and breathed deep into our bodies. We know now that these emissions contribute to a longer-term and perhaps ultimately more dangerous form of pollution climate change."
