34" OIL Pipeline RUPTURED Alaska

Alaska‘Fairly large’ oil spill reported in Alaska

"A lot of the oil isn't visible," Beaudo said.

"carries about 850,000 barrels per day from all sources."

"Fairly Large" just sounds ominous.

"Fairly large spill"!!! Fairly large is a couple of barrels lost at sea... He also says they won't know how much is lost till its cleared up, so how does he know it isn't a small amount? This is a seemingly important pipeline, so it's probably been fixed, but the clean up will take ages... this is the price we must pay for our addiction to oil. 76 views on my thread on why hyropower should be the only power source we use. Ignorance is a veil we need lifted, and quickly.
I can imagine what happened as the dials went amiss "Roger, its playin up again, make a coffee while I fix the dial". I half expected them to quote the official reply as "Oops".
