Stuart Pimm is interviewed by the Endangered Species Coalition about the BP oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico.

Listen to this podcast (with intro by ESC’s Leda Huta) in which Stuart describes the value of the Gulf as a marine ecosystem and which species are most at risk from the spill. He discusses how scientists are helping to clean up the spill and trying to figure out the long-term effects on affected species populations and on the services nature provides. He criticizes government approaches to conservation and the need for independent peer review and monitoring of conservation programs.
