Oil Pollution


This is a picture of the Exxon Valdez oil spill that occured in Alaska on March 24, 1989. The spill occured upon hitting coral reef off the coast of Alaska. It quickly spread through the ocean waters and affected the wildlife environment. To prevent future incidents like this, equipping ships with double hulls and ensuring they are sufficiently staffed are both measures that have already been put in place.
