Did this oil spill affect any other fishing industries other than the shrimp and the oysters? what are they doing to clean up these oil spills?
ReplyDeleteJust because people didn't do their research a lot of people are out of jobs and industries lost billions of dollars. Also a lot of animals died or have come close to it. What are they really doing to clean up this oil spill that had occured?
ReplyDeleteI'm assuming pretty much all the fishing industries were affected by the spill and millions of dollars were lost due this spill. I just hope they are finding a sufficient way to clean it up and fast.
