50,000 tons of oil
(btw if u r dumb that is a lot of oil)
Nevermind "why" - What the heck is the Sea Empress"? And what was her disaster? Did she back into an aeroplane propellor?
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.
Oil contaminate and kills the sea. Oil is a toxin, which would kill the sea life in a matter of seconds.

Sea Empress oil spill happened in 1996.

The Sea Empress was a supertanker that ran aground off the coast of Wales in 1996, causing a significant oil spill. Approximately 72,000 tons of crude oil were released into the sea, resulting in environmental damage to the coastline and marine ecosystem. Efforts were made to contain and clean up the spill, but it had lasting impacts on the local environment.
A ship named 'Sea Empress' was involved in an oil spill in West Wales in 1996. Details involving this oil spill have been included in an Antarctic Treaty follow-up report held in Hobart, Australia in May 2012, as a basis for evaluating vessels permitted to sail in Antarctic waters. There is no information on 'Antarctica Sea Empress'.

The Sea Empress oil spill cleanup, which occurred in 1996 off the coast of Wales, cost approximately £40 million. The responsible company, Texaco, was held liable for the incident and ultimately paid the cleanup costs, as well as compensations for environmental damage and economic losses to local businesses. The total financial impact, including claims and fines, amounted to around £60 million.
The so-called Empress Line- from the names of their ships- was the Canadian Pacific marine department.

If oil gets on you it could kill you. Oil can kill all sea life and plants in the ocean.
Oil on the sea surface will lose some of it lighter volatile components to the atmosphere (making it thicker and more tarry) however the collected residue can be processed in a refinery which can 'crack' the remaining hydrocarbons and produce some usable petrochemical products.
This is what would happen:First,We would lose half the seafood industry in America.Second,The oil would go up along the Atlantic coast up to Maine.Third,We lose THREE FOURTHS OF OUR SEA FOOD INDUSTRY.
