Two years ago, we were told by environmental groups that this was going to do irreparable damage to the marine and marsh environments. I was curious, so today I started searching around for a recent benchmark of the damage that exists. I couldn't find anything.

Anybody have any links to share that are recent?

The BP story quickly faded away, as there was were no evil oil companies, no wait, there was one... The BP story quickly faded away because there was just a little bit of oil spilled, no wait, there was a LOT... The BP story quickly faded away because there were no evil right wing, Halliburton loving Bushes to blame! Yeah, that's the ticket.

I wonder why we are not hearing more about this? Probably not sensational enough.

May not be related though..... from that article :

"Although the timing of die-off largely coincides with BP's Deepwater Horizon oil spill and its aftermath, the deaths actually started increasing about two months before the April 20, 2010 explosion which started the months long oil spill."
