BP Oil Spill articles

Hi folks!
I found a couple of articles and new pictures about the BP oil spill. I went to npr.org which is an amazing, trusted source to receive information about news all around the world and interesting topics. They have a tab specifically for the Oil Spill and a live stream looking at 5 areas of the spill as well as a estimation on the right side, about how many gallons of oil has leaked.
Social media is a great tool to find out information about global or national issues. Facebook provides users with fan pages to follow people/places/things/interests and see what they are up to. On the Planet Green Facebook Page I found some very sad, documented photos for the Oil Spill. Please check these two links out and learn about community, local and global issues around the world! Knowledge is Power. Copy/ Paste the links below!
