the oil spill

                           The Oil Spill

The oil spill takes place in the gulf of Mexico ,off the southwest tip of Luisiana.Everyone is trying to help make the oil disapeer and doing many things to help. The BP brothers were mainly involved in the oil spill they were the cause of all this disaster.The main problem is that theres oil all over the ocean. To be exact it all began april 20,2010.The oil spill started after a gas explosion on a offshore oil drilling platform from a gas pocket. What can be done is that we can use nuclear blasts to successfully seal off runaway gas wells, inserting a bomb deep underground and letting its fiery heat melt the surrounding rock to shut off the flow. Collecting 80% of fines from the largest oil spill in U.S. history for Gulf Coast restoration but , Congress will have to pass legislation to make it happen.What organizations are helping? The BP, CNN, Coaliton to Restore Costal Luisiana, National Park Foundation's Disaster Recovery Fund but, we can all help. Wat are they doing to help?..Transocean hired around 600 employees both on and offshore who are involved in ending the spill, he says, but declined to say if BP would also be responsible for compensating those employees. they are trying their best but people are getting sick by, going down with nausea, severe headaches, and breathing problems after working in waters contaminated by the nation's worst oil spill. Although we can all help by donating money for all the affected animal only few of us are helping.
