Oil Crisis!....in the Ocean?!?




I recently heard about the oil spill in the Gulf coast and I didnt pay much attention to it, until I went to the supermarket and I found out that prices had gone up again. Because of the oil spill in the Gulf Coast I am unable to get all the products I want. Sea food prices have gone up because the fisherman are unable to fish in the oil infested waters. Other products are also becoming expensive because it now takes more time and money to transport the products from one place to another. Companies cant dock their ships in the Gulf Coast because of the oil spill so they have to dock their boats somewhere else and then transport them by land.
