Why does BP hate the environment?

I dont understand why they wanted to blow up the oil rig and kill all of the wildlife. Did it help them make money or something? I am so angry with BP and I think that they need to all get the death penalty. And now they are burning sea turtles by burning the oil in the gulf. This makes me so angry and I need serious answers to explain this!
BP do not blow up their own oil rigs, presumably it was an accident which caused the explosion, it was originally suggested that it might have been a terrorist attack but until the independent accident investigators have done their job we will not know. Though it seems possible as they have not be able to carry out their investigations thoroughly until the leak is stopped, that much of the evidence will have been destroyed.



The real question we should all be asking ourselves and our politicians is should governments give any of the oil companies deep sea drilling rights until they have the capabilities of dealing with a disaster at this depth. Many experts have been pointing out for years the dangers of deep sea drilling and warning of such disasters as this, which is not the first one.



This latest disaster will not be the last, the oil companies are all aware of this but they make such huge profits they can pay the compensation required and while they do not hate the environment their bottom line is the profit they can make, exactly the same as any of the major industries.



They are perfectly willing to close down a outlet and put thousands of loyal workers out of work if they can move the business to another country where they can pay those new workers less money and get grants from the new country
