HOW CAN OIL SPILLS EFFECT THE OCEAN FOOD CHAIN?

THEY EFFECT IT BECAUSE IF ANIMALS DIE, THEIR POPULATION GOES DOWN.

ANIMALS DIE BECAUSE....

  • Oil gets stuck in their fur, causing them to not move or hunt, later on they starve
  • or an animal eats it, becoming intoxicated with oil.

HOW COULD OIL SPILLS EFFECT OCEAN PLANT LIFE?

THEY EFFECT IT BECAUSE PLANTS COULD ABSORB IT AND MAKE IT INEDIBLE

IT COULD EFFECT PLANT LIFE BECAUSE...

  • If oil gets into plants, then animals cannot eat it
  • Oil could kill plants and make them extinct

HOW CAN WE PROTECT OCEAN LIFE FROM OIL SPILLS?

WE CAN HELP BY INCREASING THE USE OF ALTERNATIVE ENERGY.

THINGS WE CAN DO TO HELP...

  • Increase solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower
  • Have temporary tanks to hold animals while we clean the oil spills
  • Get money to create websites, saving animals
