Six ways we can restore the Gulf of Mexico
The BP Deepwater Horizon oil disaster was bad – 200 million gallons bad – but thanks to the RESTORE Act, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make the Gulf better than ever.

There’s one problem, though—how do you replant a fish or restore a dolphin? Find out how and then do something about it. Let the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council know that the Gulf should be restored where the BP oil disaster began – in the deep water.
