Introducing "A Whale", the largest oil skimmer in the world. Taiwanese designed, Liberian flagged ship that is approx 3 1/2 football fields long, 10 stories high, and is capable of sucking in 500,000 barrels of oiled water in a day. It then filters the water and releases it back into the ocean. Approx 2% of the oil will be left in the released water. That is 98% of the oil removed. 98%. the people behind it say they can do in one day what BP has done in two months. It all seems too good to be true. But wait, your government wants to go through the hoops and semantics while the worst oil spill in out countrys history, and probably the worst ecological disaster as well takes place. Oh, and the EPA doesn't like the fact that 2% of the oil will be put back.
