An oil spill is a kind of pollution caused by oil, where liquid petroleum hydrocarbon is released into the environment, such as marine areas. A sample quote is: "If you ask the fish whether they'd rather have an oil spill or a season of fishing, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd vote for another blowout" by Mark Bittman.
