More Vandalism Cleanup

edit

Reverted to a previous version. Currently tracking down a source for the the "Calculating amount of oil spilled". I believe it stems from research done by Eldridge in the 1940's. Metcalf & Eddy has a mention of it. Will make necessary changes when I find a reputable source. I'll see about helping you out there, Gwissi :) --Kibblesnbits 18:05, 9 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Birds and oil spills

edit

I would like some information about birds and oil spills. I know this is a big issue, but i dont understand why oil spills are so devastating to marine birds. If someone please could write *a lot* about this, it would make me very happy:)Gwissi


You guys need more info!

Is this really all anyone knows about oil spills? If I were the guy who started this article, I'd go to: [1]. It's good, simple, information. Steveo2

Instead of telling people what to do, why don't you put some work into it? --Csnewton 18:17, 29 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

The Exxon Valdez link previously linked the ship. I've now linked the page for the spill, instead. --repayne 16:54, 4 Sep 2005 (EDT)

Vandalism cleanup

edit

I just cleaned up after two vandals, and in a review of the article history, I found that it had been seriously vandalized going back several weeks. I think it's all back in place now. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 19:54, 7 November 2006 (UTC)Reply


Oil Spill Materials

edit

I would like to know what material is most likely to clean up most of the oil from the water. Also my question is what is the better material for oil spills a cloth or cotton. I would like to know more about this topic. I would like to help the Earth one situation at a time. <33
