This blog discusses corroded BP pipelines in Alaska. According to the blog, 148 piplines earned an "F- rank", which means that they are corroded and could rupture any second. The blog finds interviews from former BP employees in Alaska who once again say BP is sacrificing safety in order to save themselves money. But the blog does a very good job at also bringing up BP's side of the case as well, making it seem very academic and credible.
I found this blog very interesting because it discusses BP's Alaskan pipelines in great depth and what they are doing or not doing to fix them. All of the information in the blog seems very credible and they draw from many sources. With everyones attention on the Gulf oil spill right now, the blog raises the question that maybe some of this attention should shift toward Alaska to prevent another major disaster. It seems as though this is another example of BP just being a fundamentally flawed company, more interested in making a few extra dollars rather than protecting the environment.
