Satellite images of oil slicks off coast show recent spill far from a one-off
(Worthy News) – The environmental organization Greenpeace on Sunday published images from the European Sentinel satellite showing 12 apparent oil slicks at various distances from Israel’s shores in the days before a storm washed tons of tar onto 160 kilometers (99 miles) of Israel’s coastline.
The findings suggest that oil leaks or dumping are relatively common in the region, as they are throughout the world.
Oil spills can take place wherever oil is drilled, transported or used, and can be caused by anything from accidents during refueling to breaks in pipelines, discharges from oil wells, or mistakes during drilling. Oil can also be dumped overboard, for example, if is starting to harden, although this is illegal. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
