The Real Oil Spill Victims (Video) | Wildlife And Fish Being Killed Off

When The Exxon Valdez spill happened, it caused damage to about 30% of the wildlife in the region; some of which have never recovered.

The Gulf Spill, on the other hand, is closer to home and therefore affects more us locally. Not only tourists and fishermen, but all kinds of animals. If you thought you knew how bad the spill was, think again.

Carl Safina really puts his heart into this presentation. There are a few moments where he gets really upset, but then again, should we all be?

The most inspiring part of this video has to be the end where he comments about clean energy. It’s been thousands of years and humans are still, in theory, “burning” things and creating waste with energy. Now that we have the poser to change that, we need to convert to clean energy before it’s too late.
