Oil Spills

by Peggy J. Parks

Book Overview

Massive oil spills are not a common occurrence. In fact, they rarely happen at all-but when they do, the effects can be devastating to the environment. Using real-life oil spills as examples, this book gives readers a clear picture of how these spills happen, the damage they cause, what it takes to clean up the mess, and the long-term environmental effects.
