The document discusses the financial impacts of BP's response to the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. It summarizes that BP took a $40.9 billion pre-tax charge related to the spill costs. However, the total costs are uncertain due to many factors including fines, penalties, and long-term environmental damage. The document also examines challenges in assessing ecological and economic damages from the spill and outlines needs for more reliable environmental accounting and reporting from companies.

Deep Water Horizon Accident - by ALOKRANJAN.ORG.INALOK RANJAN
The Deepwater Horizon accident, also known as the BP oil spill or the Macondo blowout, was a catastrophic event that occurred on April 20, 2010, in the Gulf of Mexico. It was one of the largest marine oil spills in history and had severe environmental, economic, and social impacts.
Here are some key details about the Deepwater Horizon accident:
1. **Location and Context**: The Deepwater Horizon drilling rig was located approximately 40 miles southeast of the Louisiana coast in the Macondo Prospect, an oil field estimated to hold significant oil reserves.
2. **Cause of the Accident**: The disaster was triggered by a blowout—a sudden and uncontrollable release of oil and gas—from the Macondo well. This blowout led to a series of explosions on the drilling rig.
3. **Explosion and Sinking**: On April 20, 2010, a surge of methane gas from the well caused an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig. The explosion and subsequent fire resulted in the deaths of 11 workers and injured 17 others. The rig eventually sank on April 22, 2010.
4. **Oil Spill**: The blowout caused a massive oil spill that continued for 87 days until the well was successfully capped on July 15, 2010. It's estimated that approximately 4.9 million barrels (210 million gallons) of oil were discharged into the Gulf of Mexico.
5. **Environmental Impact**: The spill had devastating effects on marine and coastal ecosystems. It harmed fish, birds, marine mammals, and other wildlife. The oil also damaged wetlands, beaches, and estuaries along the Gulf Coast, impacting tourism and fishing industries.
6. **Response Efforts**: The response to the spill involved a massive cleanup operation by BP (the owner of the well), government agencies, and volunteers. Various methods were used to contain and remove the oil, including controlled burns, chemical dispersants, and the deployment of booms.
7. **Legal and Financial Consequences**: BP faced extensive legal action and paid billions of dollars in fines and settlements for environmental damage, economic losses, and cleanup costs. The spill also led to changes in offshore drilling regulations and safety standards.
8. **Long-term Effects**: The environmental impact of the Deepwater Horizon spill continues to be studied. Scientists are monitoring the recovery of affected ecosystems and assessing the long-term effects on marine life and habitats.
The Deepwater Horizon accident highlighted the risks associated with offshore oil drilling and emphasized the importance of stringent safety measures to prevent similar disasters in the future.

BP: Example of an Unethical Trifecta
Posted on September 17, 2013 by mensah_henry
From the dawn of time, human beings have relied on the environment to provide with the all the things we need to survive and be successful. It has also helped us develop civilizations and founded industries where there was none. Our exploitation of our environment is part of what makes us successful. The more we have been able to conquer and manipulate our environment, the more we have developed culturally, socially, and economically (Kareiva and Marvier, 2012). The three tenets of culture, society, and economy has been our biggest source of influence in dealing with the environment. Ever since the discovery of oil by the ancient civilizations of Babylonia and Greece, great importance has been placed on our ability to utilize it and the products we get from it (Totten, 2007). Today, the oil industry has grown from nothing to become one of the world’s biggest and most important. British Petroleum (BP) is one of the largest oil companies in the world and a major stakeholder in the United States oil industry.
Although BP has been operating in the United States for a long time, its history and operations have not always been worthy of praise. The company has been in the middle of several issues and held accountable for several incidents that have resulted in the loss of life, property, and massive environmental damage. The United States government has always placed a premium on the environment and its safety and Americans in general are conscious about the environment and what needs to be done to protect it.
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the BP Pipeline case (Case 6.25 on pp. 411-422) and to address the following topics:
• Discuss in detail the ethical, negligence, and environmental issues you see in this case.
• BP had rented the rig from Transocean for $500,000 per day. Transocean had been recognized by the U.S. government for its safety record. Can companies distance themselves from liability and responsibility through the use of contractors?
• Discuss how BP got into the position in which it found itself in late 2006 and what might have prevented the spill, the financial fallout, and the loss of reputation. Be sure to factor in the financial implications of any decision made during the period from 2001 to 2006.
• What was the impact of the emphasis in cost cutting on BP’s culture? What was the influence on the company’s performance?
• Evaluate the social responsibility positions of BP in light of the refinery explosion and the pipeline issue. What can companies learn from the BP experience?
British Petroleum has a large operation in the United States and it has made investments to ensure that it develops these operations to maximize its production and increase profits. One such investment was the acquisition of the vast oil field at Prudhoe Bay, .

The job of the Supreme Court is to apply the Constitution, not to make public policy. That means that if they're doing their job, the specific outcomes of the decision shouldn't be a factor in their decision. That's why, sometimes, bad guys go free because the police violated a rule that protects all of us in we're accused of wrongdoing. Free speech can also be troublesome. It sounds a lot better in theory than it sometimes turns out in practice.

BP: Example of an Unethical Trifecta
Posted on September 17, 2013 by mensah_henry
From the dawn of time, human beings have relied on the environment to provide with the all the things we need to survive and be successful. It has also helped us develop civilizations and founded industries where there was none. Our exploitation of our environment is part of what makes us successful. The more we have been able to conquer and manipulate our environment, the more we have developed culturally, socially, and economically (Kareiva and Marvier, 2012).

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

THE DEEPWATER HORIZON OIL SPILL :
THE KEY POINTS
he Deepwater Horizon oil spill, also known as the
Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill or the BP Oil Spill, is the
largest marine oil spill in US history. It was caused by an
explosion on the Deepwater Horizon offshore oil platform
about 50 miles southeast of the Mississippi River delta on
April 20, 2010. After a series of failed efforts to plug the
leak, BP said on July 15 that it had capped the well, stop-
ping the flow of oil into the Gulf of Mexico for the first
time in 86 days. Though the rate of oil release rapidly be-
came the subject of intense debate, the current consensus
is that roughly five million barrels of oil were released by
the Macondo well, with about 4.2 million barrels pouring
into the waters of the Gulf of Mexico (Cleveland 2010).
Estimates of the extent of the surface oil slick vary widely
2. (derived from data on wind / ocean current forecasts, aerial
photography and satellite imagery): for instance, Skytruth1
has estimated the total oil-slick footprint at 68,000 square
miles.
BP was the principal developer of the Macondo Prospect
oil field where the accident occurred. The Deepwater Ho-
rizon, owned by Transocean Ltd., was under a contract
with BP to drill an exploratory well. At the time of the
explosion, BP and Transocean were in the process of clo-
sing the well in anticipation of later production, while
Halliburton had recently completed cementing of casings
in the well. The U.S. Government named BP as the res-
ponsible party in the incident and will apparently hold the
company accountable for all cleanup costs resulting from
the oil spill. Though BP has accepted responsibility for it
as well as the ensuing cleanup costs, it has recently in-
dicated that Transocean and Halliburton both deserved
considerable blame for the disaster (Cleveland 2010).
THE FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS OF BP’S
RESPONSE TO DEEPWATER HORIZON OIL SPILL
n February 1 2011, BP released its group income sta-
tement for the fourth quarter of 2010. It reflects a pre-
tax charge of US$40.9 billion related to the Deepwater
Horizon oil spill, which includes US$17.7 billion of costs
effectively incurred for 20102. All charges relating to the
incident have been treated as non-operating items and were
deduced from taxable income. This includes a US$20-
billion escrow account BP has agreed to establish over the
next 3.5 years by the sale of US assets. The escrow account
will be available to satisfy legitimate claims adjudicated
by the independent Gulf Coast Claims Facility (GCCF),
final judgments in litigation and litigation settlements, sta-
3. te and local response costs, and costs related to natural re-
source damages. Notably, BP has committed to fund up to
$500 million for a 10-year research programme studying
the impact of (a) the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and (b) its
associated response on the marine and shoreline ecosys-
tems. The group has also agreed to fund the $360-million
cost of six berms in the Louisiana barrier islands project.Figure

Figure 2: Financial impacts of non-operating charges linked to
the BP Gulf of Mexico oil spill response for the first two
quarters of 2010 (BP 2010, p.6)
Yet, the charge does not reflect any amounts relating to fi-
nes and penalties, except for those which might arise from
proven strict liability under the Clean Water Act (this can
reach up to US$4,300 per barrel of oil spilled if gross ne-
gligence is found). BP has argued that it was not possible
to estimate reliably either the amount or timing of such
additional amounts.
In other words, the significant uncertainty regarding the
total amounts the company will ultimately have to pay im-
plies that the US$20-billion escrow account cannot repre-
sent a liability cap. According to BP (2010), the ultimate
exposure will be dependent on many factors, including the
date that the flow of hydrocarbons from the MC252 well
is permanently halted, the amount of oil that is ultimately
discharged, the time taken in clean-up activities (underta-
ken on an unprecedented scale) and the number, nature and
amount of claims that ultimately arise.
3 Quantifying damages will be highly challenging due to the
lack of exhaustive socio-ecological data sets pre-dating the oil
spill for affected areas.
THE CHALLENGE OF ASSESSING ECOLOGICAL
AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC DAMAGES : THE VALUE
LOSS VS. THE REPLACEMENT COST APPROACH
5. he ecological and economic impacts of the Deepwa-
ter Horizon oil spill will be very difficult to quantify
in both space and time3.
According to Costanza et al. (2010), the spill has di-
rectly and indirectly affected at least 20 categories of
valuable ecosystem services in and around the Gulf of
Mexico (e.g. almost complete shutdown of the US$2.5
billion per year Louisiana commercial fishery), in-
cluding non-marketed ones such as climate regulation
(sequestration of carbon by coastal marshes and open
water systems), hurricane protection by coastal wet-
lands, and cultural, recreational, and aesthetic values.

A recently released study (Batker et al., 2010) roughly es-
timated the total value of these ecosystem services for the
Mississippi River Delta to be in the range of US$12-47
billion per year. If one assumes that it will be the most
6. affected region and that there will be a 10 to 50 percent
reduction in the ecosystem services provided by the Delta
as a result of the oil spill, the value of lost ecosystem servi-
ces would amount to $1.2 – $23.5 billion per year into the
indefinite future (until ecological recovery), or $34 – $670
billion in present value (at a 3.5 percent discount rate; Cos-
tanza et al., 2010).
In practice however, government trustees understandably
have found it difficult to rigorously measure lost ecosystem
goods and services (Boyd 2010); the methodological foun-
dations and end-results of such studies being often highly
contested by stakeholders (Chevassus-au-Louis et al., 2009).
As an alternative, agencies have focused on a more practical
route to assessing damages: the resource replacement cost
approach (i.e. goal is to replace lost economic and ecologi-
cal wealth via restoration). In other words, by soliciting res-
toration bids and using those monetary costs as a concrete
focus in damage negotiations, they avoid measuring lost
social wealth (and its associated costs and uncertainties).
However, not all biophysical damages are obvious or pre-
dictable. As argued by Boyd (2010, p. 19), “(t)his raises
the possibility that physical damages are under-estimated
given the challenge of demonstrating causally related ef-
fects. The economic problem with the approach is that costs
are not the same as benefits. A focus on restoration costs as
the measure of damages can lead to both over- and under-
deterrence, depending on the relationship of restoration
costs to the true social cost of the physical damages”.
As soon as methods for measuring ecosystem services
reach a more mature phase, plaintiffs, trustees, and courts
will most likely have powerful tools in their hands for as-
sessing marine liability damages. For now, given current
scientific and economic knowledge, the scale of penalties
7. is more likely to be resolved through political bargaining
than technical calculation.
This might explain why BP has neither fully disclosed the
details of ecosystem and social damages, nor the under-
lying calculation methodologies of its pre-tax charge of
US$40.9 billion.
Such information would have been critical to (1) assess
the pertinence of the global amounts charged (i.e. are there
any negative externalities4 still unaccounted for?) and (2)
understand the amplitude of restoration efforts to be under-
taken as regards to the ecosystem assets and values which
have been lost or partially / temporarily impaired. If one
can easily understand the fiscal advantages of deducing
from taxable income this substantial non-operating charge,
BP’s limited disclosure does not provide stakeholders with
the full picture of the financial, environmental and social
implications of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

4 An externality (or transaction spillover) is a cost or benefit,
not transmitted through prices, incurred by a party who did not
agree to the action causing
the cost or benefit. A benefit in this case is called a positive
externality or external benefit, while a cost is called a negative
externality or external cost ;
as in the case of the BP oil spill.

TOWARDS INCREASED REGULATION FOR OIL
AND GAS ACTIVITIES WORLDWIDE ? THE NEED
F O R M O R E R E L I A B L E E N V I R O N M E N TA L
A C COUNTING AND REPORTING
he Deepwater Horizon oil spill is likely to result in
more stringent regulation of oil and gas activities in
the US and elsewhere, particularly relating to environmen-
tal, health and safety protection controls and oversight of
drilling operations, as well as in terms of access to new
drilling areas. As put by BP itself (2010, p. 33), “signifi-
cant uncertainties over the extent and timing of costs and
liabilities relating to the incident and the changes in the
regulatory and operating environment that may result from
the incident have increased the risks to which the group is
exposed. These uncertainties are likely to continue for a
significant period. These risks have had and are expected
to have a material adverse impact on the group’s business,
competitive position, cash flows, prospects, liquidity, sha-
reholder returns and/or implementation of its strategic
9. agenda.”
Such an acknowledgement strongly builds the case for
integrating biodiversity and ecosystem services metrics
into the environmental risk management procedures and
information systems of all businesses operating hazardous
assets.
Furthermore, the need for more reliable environmental ac-
counting and reporting practices has to be emphasized if
we want to become serious about corporate environmental
performance. In South Africa, the drive towards integrated
reporting for JSE-listed companies may just provide that
opportunity (IRC 2011): putting together financial, social
and environmental (monetary and non-monetary) informa-
tion, side-by-side and in a meaningful format, could ensu-
re the reliable disclosure of the integrated performance of
organizations to stakeholders (Houdet 2010). To that end,
the systematic disclosure of the following information in
integrated annual reports should be encouraged and stan-
dardized :
1. The up-to-date status and trends of ecosystems within
which the reporting entity operates: i.e. spatiotemporal in-
formation for all directly and indirectly-controlled assets
(including joint-ventures) so as to ensure that stakeholders
have reliable ecological reference points prior to any po-
tential impact, accident or development; which would im-
ply collaborating with research bodies, public institutions
or NGO’s for collecting, processing and diffusing the rele-
vant ecosystem data sets;
2. The social and ecological externalities of the reporting
entity (recurring impacts or exceptional accidents), with
respect to its dependencies and impacts on all ecosystem
services (inclusive of climate regulation, water consump-
10. tion and biodiversity) (Houdet et al., 2010) and through
both quantitative non-monetary and monetary metrics (e.g.
Huizing & Deker, 1992);
3. Summarized tables for all environmental revenues,
charges and liabilities, calculation methods at the basis of
all material environmental transactions and explanations
for the potential gaps between the latter and estimated ex-
ternalities;
4. As regards to Environmental Impact Assessments, (a)
the methods used to design biodiversity and ecosystem
services offset measures (i.e. ecological equivalencies
between what is lost and realized offsets) and (b) syste-
matic ex-post assessments of the ecological efficacy of all
mitigation measures undertaken, inclusive of aforementio-
ned offsets.
Given the deteriorating image of firms regarding their Bio-
diversity Footprint (Houdet 2010; IFOP 2010), the goal
would be nothing less than regaining stakeholder trust, es-
pecially for the mining and retailing industries.
