Study: Petroleum-eating microbes significantly reduced gulf oil plume ( Deepwater Horizon oilspill )

I’m surprised the administration hasn’t tried to keep the work of the microbes secret so that they don’t lose an excuse for not drilling in our waters.

In wonder what the microbe’s waste consists of.

According to this article:
