Deep Water Horizon – Crude Oil

Deep Water Horizon – Oil Spill

PURPOSE STАTЕMЕNT & RАTІONАLЕ Petroleum industry has worldwide business operations Crude oil supports growth and development Oil energy is in high global demand

Environmental Damage Statistics – Oil Spill

LІTЕRАTURЕ RЕVІЕW Oil spills pollute the environment Oil spills occur from many sources Pollution is very hazardous Environmental pollution damage marine life Pollution affects all living organisms Deepwater Horizon cause large oil spills Makes life risky

Life Threats Caused By Oil Spill

MЕTHODOLOGY Deep water horizon damages marine life and humans Pollution concerns have become serious All countries do not consider endangering of marine lives serious For Saudis preserving marine lives has become very important Information on deep water horizon damages would be gathered through data collection Factors causing pollution would be studied Negative impact on marine lives would be analyzed Solutions for pollution prevention would be presented

EXPЕCTЕD FІNDІNGS АND IMPLІCАTІONS Petroleum industry cause serious environmental damages Petroleum industry should protect the environment Life should be preserved Further environmental deterioration Research results would deliver solutions for environment protection

REFLECTION ON RESOURCES Read articles and books Obtained knowledge Learned about food chain risks Spilling oil is passing into plankton Impacts food web Food sources are destroyed Oil spills take years for cleaning Toxic effects remain for years Consumption of toxic food affect DNA genetics Environmental pollution create negative health effects Fertility rates are affected Destroy natural habitats
