Action in the gulf?

As oil encroaches on the wetlands of the Gulf Coast, no-one fully understands the impacts of the disaster on this delicate environment.  With so many marshlands already eroding due to the rising sea level and loss of sediment, the addition of oil contamination brings new fears for the flora and fauna that provide the basis for the Gulf Coast seafood industry that supplies most of the US with oysters, shrimp and other commercial species.
The Deepwater Horizon oil spill has galvanized a huge effort on the part of many groups and individuals to help protect, clean up and restore habitats that have been disturbed by the spill.  In this blog I will try to capture the progress of the numerous groups who are taking action to preserve the wildlife, the wetlands and the beach habitats from the oil as it comes on shore across the Gulf coastline.  If you have a blog that you would like me to add to my blogroll, please send it along.
