Kevin Costner addresses the question of his conflict of interests promoting a technology from which he profits. Representative Baird asks the panel about the environmental impacts of dispersants. Dr. Kinner concludes that the use of dispersants for the BP spill "was less environmentally harmful" than allowing the oil to reach the shorelines. The panel discusses the issues of cost effectiveness of clean up technologies.

Speakers: Kevin Costner, Actor & Ocean Therapy Solutions Partner; Rep. Brian Baird, D-Washington; Dr. Nancy Kinner, University of New Hampshire, Coastal Response Research Center; Rep. Judy Biggert, R-Illinois
