Like a painter washing away a regretted brush stroke, BP is in process of erasing an unwanted piece of their artwork in Washington state. Imagine if you will, a stray pouring of gasoline that amounted to a staggering 25,000 gallons. Now picture the oil giant, BP, trading in their hard hats for cleaning gloves, coming up against the canvas of nature daubed drastically with the telltale stain of a gasoline spill.
It's a scene impossible to ignore, like an elephant in a china shop. The gasoline spill is a full-blown, uninvited guest running rampant in the greens, and it's on our beloved BP to show it the door. But it's not just their responsibility. After all, when there are strokes of gasoline smeared across the landscape, the cleaning process becomes a masterstroke in its own right.
