This happened at the end of 2009 in the Gulf of Mexico. The tank of oil had collapsed and fallen in the ocean. Ever since, BP, a company who is helping to do the clean up, has been trying to figure out a way to clog the tank and clean the ocean. This cause has lead a wave all of the United States to take care of the environment. And we all are still trying to find a resolution to this problem.

Hope this helps! :)
