Affected By BP Oil DisasterNo one knows yet how far-reaching the BP Oil Disaster will be. Certainly, all the United States' Gulf Coast is already being affected, but the way the currents go, most of the eastern coastline could be affected, too. The oil slick could then move across the ocean to Europe.

Another factor is pollutants that are getting into the air, not only from the oil, but from gases escaping with the oil and the dispersant that BP used. Air currants and storms that originate in the Gulf could carry those pollutants along their paths to places north of the Gulf and much farther inland.
