So NOLA is flooded. Classical mentality says... repair the levees and pump the city dry. Well we're not pumping water out anymore. This is toxic waste... chemicals... gas from all of the flooded vehicles... decaying bodies... etc.

So where are "they" going to pump it to? The mississippi? The gulf?

Will it be filtered?

Curious,

I've been wondering this myself. I'm sure it's just going back into Pontchartrain. There's not really any other place than the Mississippi to pump it.

But uggh.

Sri Oracle, look up to the right of the screen, you'll see X u2u's. That's private communications. Click on it.

New here... sorry... will read all u2u's before reposting.

Thank you.

That is the miracle of nature. Nature will clean it up naturally.

^kinda naive to think something like that.

naturally the water wouldnt be that poluted after a hurricane flood but we made it that way with gas leaks and such. theres a possiblity that nautrally alot of it would go away but not the gas and oil pollution as such.

Pure oil leaks from the ocean all the time. Remember oil is natural. Gas is a derivitve from oil, that might take a little longer to break down, but it eventually will.

A little longer? Some of the chemicals involved in this catastrophe will not be broken down by natural means for several eons. What about our children? Is this the world we want to leave to them? Ehhh.. . don't worry about it... nature will cure it.

No... It takes more than that. Karmayoga perhaps? Repent perhaps?

agreed, maybe oil wont be the worst but this is still bad and letting nature do its thing with stuff that may not be 'natural' is a bad idea
