“researchers led by Terry Hazen at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory”
Before buying into this finding lock, stock and barrel, I’d like to know the political leanings of the authors of the study, then look for peer review. Given what’s been done to science by political pressure and agendas, absolutely nothing can be taken any longer at face value.

I knew Terry Hazen about 10-15 years ago. IMO he was a hack and an opportunist who jumped into whatever field was hot, did some shoddy work and moved on. His work on the oil spill fits that pattern perfectly.
