After reading the article on the BP oil spill, it is said that BP is being accused of manipulating search results on google and yahoo as it attempts to salvage its battered image, of what I think, whether its true or not, BP should clean up the oil polluted sea as soon as possible. “Subsea oil plumes have now been discovered as far as 142miles from the damaged rig.” Having oil leakage into the sea, it can kill the marine life, which may lead to endangering the lives of other animals.
Based on the article, it state that the horrific impact this oil spill has had on the wildlife on the Gulf coast, this shows that oil spill can pollute our environment. People will avoid going to the beach. This may result in the decrease of the number of tourist visiting thus leading to the lost of revenue. Fishermen cannot fish as well as well if the sea is not cleaned up properly and thus lose their job. Even if some fishermen were to fish, they sell the fish to the market, those who consumed the fish may end up having food poisoning as well. This is a serious case!
Cleaning up of oil spill is expensive as well.
I do hope that BP or other oil companies will be more careful in handling or transporting of the oil so that this incident will never happen again. We should play a part in saving our environment.
