The oil company, asked the government fot help from the naval to stop the oil to invade coastal areas. Some fisherman are being asked for their boats to help the navy to control this terrible man-made mistake. The damages this will cause to the wildlife in that are terrible.Louisiana was recovering from Hurricane Katrina in 2005, some parts of the flora and fauna were rebuilding in the damaged areas.

One of them is to pipe up all the oil and bring it to the surface, the other is to drill a well to capture the oil and to switch off the release button.There are some orange barriers to keep the oil from expanding into the coastline. This oil spill will kill many oceanic life. OYSTERS, SHRIMPS, LITTLE FISHES, PELICANS, TURTLES, and many more animals will suffere the price of human mistakes. The world now revolves around petroleum and with something like this happening world will face with the loss of the millions of barrels lost in the deep water will be gigantic, the loss of a non-renewable resource that every country in the world is fighting for. This should encourage scientists and inventors to create another source of energy for the future of automobiles.
