April 20th 2010 is another inauspicious day for both human beings and the whole nature. This incident was reported from the Gulf of Mexico. This is about the deep-water oil drilling rig and the whole workstation explodes and catches fire in the Gulf of Mexico.
The biggest problem with this is the sea pollution. According to the news, the oil leaking rate is about 42,000 gallons per day.
The news reports that the robot subs are used to try to stop the leak, but it is not 100% successful.
However the question is how to recover the environmental disaster here. A very large amount of crude oil is mixed with sea water. According to the news reports there is an area of 1500 sqkm, covered with crude oil in the sea, so a large number of sea creatures and plants at risk.
