Oil Spills

How Much Oil Has Leaked Into the Gulf of Mexico?
An estimated 210,000 gallons (5,000 barrels) a day is coming from the remaining ruptures. At that rate, this leak will reach the 11 million gallons spilled by the Exxon Valdez in 1989 in mid-June if it's left unchecked. I think that if we continue to ignore this issue it will become a big problem, that we will not be able to fix. We need to fix this problem and we need to fix it now!
