= **CAUSES OF SPILL** = What causes of spill? it is when the British Petroleum's as known as BP's for short. Efforts to manage the spill with controlled burning, dispersal and plugging the leak have so far been unsuccessful. Millions of gallons bumped down to the ocean which causes the exploded.

As you can see, this is one of the picture of oil spill today, this lead to many deaths and cause negative effects on the ocean conditions as well as threatening the life of many species under the water. in addition, the oil leaking also causes many seafood restaurants unable to operate their business. Oil and natural gas exploration and drilling began on the North Slope in 1968. Scientists have had nearly 40 years to study the effects of these industrial activities on the environment. Although advances in technology decrease some negative effects of drilling, many consequences remain. The NRC’s report concludes that the network of trails, roads, and equipment used in exploratory activity has harmed vegetation, caused erosion, and degraded the aesthetics of the tundra. In addition, exploratory activities have had significant negative impacts on the animals and people of the region.

Recently, British Petroleum's oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico exploded and sank, releasing tens of thousands of gallons crude oil into the ocean every day. it'll will drive the species out of their living area and even causes extinction in some of the species that can only live in this particular area.This will in turn affect other species who longer have those fish as food or if the predators are gone, some fish will overpopulate. This will also affects restaurants that sell seafood because they are not able to get the food from the ocean.
