Some Alabama shrimpers are working with the US Coast Guard on a net system designed to pull up tar balls from the BP spill. Looks interesting, and probably safer than Corexit. (One can argue that it’s best not to use Corexit and other dispersants as they actually make things worse for wildlife by spreading the pollutants out in ways that make them much harder to genuinely clean, even with modified shrimp netting.)

Here’s the Coast Guard video, via The UpTake. What do you all think?
