It’s been almost two full years since the Deepwater Horizon oil rig disaster, where the negligence of companies like BP, Halliburton, and Transocean cost 12 men their lives, and destroyed an entire ecosystem. To this day, areas along the Gulf Coast are still trying to recover from the oil spill as tar balls roll up on our shores. But the Deepwater Horizon wasn’t the first atrocity attributed to BP, and if history is any indication, it won’t be the last. Mike Papantonio talks about the sordid history of BP, as well as the latest developments with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, with documentary filmmakers Barker White and Harper Robinson, who have a new film out called “Beyond Pollution.”
