The oil spill threatens 90% of species in the ecosystem of the Gulf of Mexico, including birds and other animals and dolphins and whales. Because it is a habitat of great environmental diversity, the impact of an environmental accident affects more than 400 species that depend on the Louisiana coastal ecosystem. Whales, dolphins, 110 species of migratory birds and the largest population of shellfish in the United States are part of this endangered species the oil spill.
I believe the responsibility to technical repair in the pipeline is BP's, no doubt. I believe in government efforts to mobilize US military to help contingencies for environmental damage to a minimum. And finally, I believe that environmentalists and volunteers will be able to recover the affected areas over the years.
But, will remain a black stain gap that allows other environmental tragedies occur in the future, if not brought to light the debate in political and legal spheres.
What are the Wildlife Rights ? If protecting the environment is a key factor for the development of sustainable economy, and all species are closely interlinked by biodiversity - including humans - is crucial that the legal mechanisms to protect the environment, also protect the animal life.
What we often call the ecosystem would not be home to those species? I think so! And when an oil company invades the home of another living being, and causes an accident that destroys the balance of that place, how many of us have wondered if studies were conducted prior to environmental accidents like this in the Gulf.
If we can legislate for the other oil plataforms in operation, requiring the submission of environmental impact studies in case of accidents like this, and accurately determine the necessary contingency plans to minimize the damage, coordinating actions, efforts and resource allocation in all levels of society and government, we have learned a valuable lesson.
To do this we must expand the Wildlife Rights, creating greater awareness and responsibility in activities that exploit natural resources and impact the environment, home to humans and all other species.
Just as we have The International Bill of Human Rights as a goal and ideal society, we shall have The International Bill of Wildlife Rights and also aim an ideal of environmental conservation.
