Oil contaminate and kills the sea. Oil is a toxin, which would kill the sea life in a matter of seconds.
oil
50,000 tons of oil (btw if u r dumb that is a lot of oil)
The Sea Empress oil tanker was on the way to the Texaco oil refinery when it became grounded on rocks at St. Ann's head, Milford Haven Waterway in Pembrokeshire, Wales on 15 February 1996. Over the course of a week, The Sea Empress spilt 73,000 tons of crude oil into the sea. The spill occurred within the Coast's National Park - one of Europe's most important and sensitive wildlife and marine conservation areas. It was Britain's 3rd largest oil spillage and the 12th largest in the world at the time.
Nevermind "why" - What the heck is the Sea Empress"? And what was her disaster? Did she back into an aeroplane propellor?
by using battleships
By preventing access from the sea to the shore and vice versa, oil spills affect sea shores. They also keep sea and seaside plants from thriving let alone even surviving. Oil spills have a similar impact upon sea and seaside animals. The animals can't move back and forth between the coastal and marine environments. Their health, habitat and food supplies are threatened if not outright destroyed.
Oil spills contaminate the sea and the fish die along with sea birds.
Oil spills can have detrimental effects on animals and plants. The oil coats the feathers or fur of animals, impairing their ability to fly, swim, or move. It can also disrupt the balance of marine ecosystems by killing or contaminating fish, shellfish, and other aquatic organisms. Plants near the spill area can die due to the toxic substances present in the oil.
It kills them. Plankton are myriad different sea creatures. They all die. Some bacteria can actually ingest oil, though.
They will get poisened by the oil when they inhale!
if nothing is done about the oil spills that are damaging the populations of the sea otter then eventually the sea otter population will die off along with the other species caught in the oil spills around the world
people in the north sea make sure the sea is not polluted, or gets oil spills.
In the Gulf of Mexico.
oil spills and pollution in the ocean
Oil is wasted by many activities,by oil spills on sea,on sometimes burning.

Yes, weather can significantly affect oil spills in several ways. Rain can dilute the oil, while wind can spread it over a larger area, complicating cleanup efforts. Additionally, rough sea conditions can hinder response operations and increase the risk of the oil reaching shorelines. Temperature also influences the viscosity of the oil, impacting its behavior and the effectiveness of containment measures.
