It harms the fish (and other sea creatures) in the water, it hurts the plants surrounding it, it turns the water black and ugly, you get the point.
Oil dilutes soil. This causes plants to die
No, it is primarily physical. Biological events 300 to 100 million years ago pulled carbon from the atmosphere and locked it up at the bottom of vast swamps, which formed our modern coal and oil deposits. But the burning of that coal and oil is not considered a biological effect. The excess CO2 in our atmosphere is not of biological origin in that sense. Some excess methane gas, however, IS from direct biological sources.
It massively effects the environment by using and collecting millions of gallons of oil
No.But it does affect the environment.
Oil can kill millions of animals and plants. Oil spills need to be cleaned up as quickly as possible.
Oil spills can effect the ocean and environment because it polutes the ocean and the air which can start to cause global warming, (WEATHER AN CLIMATE CHANGE).
Roentgen is the unit used to measure and account for a biological effect.
boats leaking oil into the river
It has no effect.
High cleanup costs, death of plants and animals, and damage to fishing economies.
A nuclear incident would have a great impact on the environment and people, but would be the least likely to occur.Several people answered "biological", but I would question the "least likely" aspect. A nuclear incident would have a greater effect on the environment compared to a biological incident.
