Deep Water Horizon• The Deepwater Horizon oil spill is the “worst environmental

disaster the US has faced,” according to the White House energy adviser Carol Browner. Indeed, the spill was by far the largest in US history, almost 20 times greater than the Exxon Valdez oil spill. Deep Water released over 200 million gallons of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico. Eight US national parks were threatened and more than 400 species that live in the Gulf islands and marsh lands were at risk. The area of the oil spill includes 8,322 species, including more than 1,200 fish, 200 birds, 1400 mollusks, and 29 marine animals.

listening.• Which means they’re probably missing the

important information.• Unless of course the important information is

on the slide.• In which case, why are you still talking?
