Issues/comments on damage to the wetland ecosystem don't even feature. The elite are so disconnected from reality its disappointing to say the least. @OilIndiaLimited must atleast comment on what they plan to do to restore the region #keepitintheground #baghjan #savedibrusaikhowa https://twitter.com/OilIndiaLimited/status/1271696912404471809
would sincerely request @isro to make available high-resolution images of the place by requesting the same form the International http://disasterscharter.org because it has been done for Russia. Maybe we can see the landscape damage using sat images.

As per @wiiofficial1 "The entire landscape, including the wetland, is coated in layers of oil." #baghjan #keepitintheground

Here's a good resource for anyone wanting to read about Oil spills in Marshes by NOAA's response & restoration office, USA. https://response.restoration.noaa.gov/sites/default/files/Oil_Spills_in_Marshes.pdf
So it's mostly Maguri Beel and some parts of Dibru-Saikhowa NP in the south that are likely to be affected by this blow out. It should be #savemaguri & #savedibrusaikhowa
There are at least 300 birds known from Maguri Beel underscoring the rich food available here for all.

Your update still lacks a comprehensive plan to assess the loss of biodiversity, ecosystem services and a plan for restoration of the ecosystem as whole. Is your in house bioremediation technology published in a peer reviewed journal? @OilIndiaLimited @moefcc https://twitter.com/OilIndiaLimited/status/1273198211742736384
"Looking back now, we deeply regret and are ashamed that we allowed OIL’s status as a public sector company to matter, instead of regarding them more narrowly in light of their track record of environmental violations." @OilIndiaLimited @moefcc read https://science.thewire.in/environment/baghjan-oil-well-national-board-for-wildlife-oil-india-limited/
