How does the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico effect the environment?

Answer 1

It doesn't; at east not yet. Most oil is transported by the Gulf of Mexico stream, which is taking it into the Gulf states (Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama) and then bordering Florida's coast into the Atlantic Ocean.

This doesn't mean however, that Mexico is safe: with the hurricane season any cyclone could hit the oil spill, "transporting" the oil into far and away lands, including Mexico.
