Conclusion of BP Oil Spill

Five years after the BP oil spill there is no more oil in the ocean, in large concentrations. According to Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans, the oil is controlled to below 800m. Which means that  the effects still remain a present  threat to the people who live around the gulf of Mexico and the animals in the ocean. Although, the oil is removed in a large concentration people who live around the gulf still have to be careful when they go to the beach. We still have to make more progress, but currently there are many barriers as to why we can not fully clean up all the oil spilled, but one thing that we can start to do is stop drilling for oil in the oceans. By not drilling in the oceans we can prevent from having another oil spill. It would be better if we could stop drilling for oil all together, but this is something that is a little out of our reach considering that the majority of people in this world depend on oil, especially for transportation.
