Oil Spill

OK, so I bet you thought I would be posting about the gulf oil spill...or the spill in China that didnt make the news until several days after it started...you are all wrong. I read an article today about oil spills in Nigeria. It surprised me to find out that approximately each year there is an oil spill in Nigeria the size of the Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska was!!! It also notes that there are about 2000 spill sites that are yet to be cleaned up.

Just a brief post but something that is important but very much out-of-sight and out-of-mind for the US.
