On April 20th, 2010 the Deepwater Horizon Rig owned by British Petroleum exploded in the Gulf of Mexico just as Halliburton and BP were working to finish cementing the well into the ocean floor.\u00a0 Now the well, completely uncontrolled and unregulated, is spilling 210,000 gallons of oil into the Gulf each day a mile below the ocean’s surface.\u00a0 This oil is becoming ingrained in the diet of the ocean’s smallest sea creatures, who will in turn be eaten by larger and larger animals, until finally these animals are eaten by you.\u00a0 Which means that sooner or later you’ll probably be eating some of this oil too.\u00a0 How does that make you feel?\u00a0 Here at Akomplice we’ve been struggling to come to grips with the overwhelming nature of this devastation.\u00a0 Our warmest heart-felt condolences go out to our entire planet and all of the world’s species who are effected by this catastrophe.\u00a0 Yet condolences offer little consolation, and we urge you all to find a way to take action! Check out an entire slideshow of photos from the spill after the jump.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
