Summary
Explores the impact of the Deepwater Horizon blowout through the eyes of a cadre of scientists working together to better understand and mitigate the fall-out from the biggest oil spill in U.S. history. Some questions answered include: Why are so many pregnant dolphins losing their young? Why did much of the oyster opulation in Louisiana disappear? Did Deepwater Horizon oil affect the health of sharks? Did the use of dispersants help mitigate the impact of the oil spill? Will we now be able to predict where ocean currents will carry the oil that results from future spills?.
