uses of gas and oil

Question and answer

uses of gas and oil

One quart of oil will create an oil slick over two acres in size – the equivalent of nearly three football fields. A single gallon of fuel can contaminate over a million gallons of water. [ Small drips and spills of gasoline, diesel, and other petroleum products add up and can have a serious effect on the marine environment, such as: death of fish, mammals, and birds; cancer, mutations, and/or birth defects; destruction of plant life; and reduction of food supply for marine organisms ]
