3. Causes  Accidents at oil rigs

4. Causes  Leak in an oil refinery

5. Causes  Tanker accident

6. Causes  Leaky pipes

7. Causes of oil water compound  Oil spreads very fast on water surface  Oil evaporates into the air  Oil contamination of sea animals  Oil seeps into groundwater

8. Measures against oil waste  Offshore Limited by barriers skim off chemical dispersion oil combustion

9. Measures against oil residues  At the beach Treating animals prevention

10. Oil accidents  Porto 1975 Tanker accident 88.000 tons of oil

11. Oil accidents  Italy, gulf of Genua 1991 Tanker accident 144.000 tons of oil

12. Oil disaster  Gulf of Mexico 2010 one of the hardest desasters ever 700 million liters of oil

13. Oil disaster Gulf of Mexico

16. Measures to protect

19. Causes during the disaster  The nature reserve is in the middle of the accident  The Mississippi Delta is endangered  Increased Air pollution caused by burning  80% of the escaped oil is still below the sea surface  Animals are helplessly exposed to the oil

20. Current status  The Oil leak was in 2000 meters deep  Oil decomposing bacteria have formed  Land and sea still contaminated
