Marine Oil Spilling

Marine Oil Spilling

Accidental leaks or spills of refined petroleum products into the ocean, such as diesel or gasoline, are the main causes of marine oil pollution. In addition, waste oil spills and the release of bunker fuels used by large ships are included. All marine life is impacted by these pollutants in the ocean, including humans. The toxin in water is ingested by small organisms, which are then eaten by large fish, which are then consumed by humans and result in birth defects and long-term health problems. They also have an impact on corals, sea life, sea birds, and marine plants. The use of chemical dispersants, oil-absorbing pads, and biological agents are a few methods for cleaning up oil spills.
