We have made incredible technological advances over the last 150 years. From the invention of the wheel to stem cell treatments, we have shown ourselves to be capable of amazing things. However, we still resort to some extremely rudimentary “solutions” to problems. This video outlines how many of our responses to oil spill disasters have not been improved upon over the last 30 years. With regards to the clean up process, MUNOX® represents a clear exception to this rather disappointing trend.
By utilizing natural microbes that feed on hydrocarbons, MUNOX® provides a safe and natural way to help restore the state of the natural environment after an oil spill. Concerns have been raised with regards to the use of chemical dispersants, a rather crude (no pun intended) response to oil spills that was utilized both in the 1979 and 2010 oil spills outlined in the above mentioned video. Oil companies and governmental agencies in charge of responding to these disasters must seek out more effective means of mitigating their effects. It’s time to move away from harmful chemical dispersants which merely create new problems and liabilities. It’s time to utilize scientific progress for the good of the environment. MUNOX® represents progress where it’s needed.
