When oil company BP started drilling the Macondo Prospect well, they expected barrels of petroleum would fill their coffers. Instead, they filled the Gulf of Mexico with oil from a cracked drill stem,1500 metres deep. For 87 days, crude oil poured into the Gulf at 100 litres per second. And instead of record profits, BP got the record for the largest accidental oil spill in history.
The Up to Speed informational ebook series is written by sustainability analyst and cli-fi (climate fiction) novelist, Guy Lane. "Give me a dollar and ten minutes of your time, and I will have you up to speed on critical sustainability issues that are shaping your daily life."
