Oil'd

In April last year, the Gulf of Mexico was on the brink of an environmental disaster when over 200 million gallons of oil leaked from a damaged pipe from the Deepwater Horizon oil rig. But how much impact globally did the oil leak cause, how could this oil have been used and how long would it have lasted if it were used up? This excellent two minute Vimeo presentation is an excellent classroom discussion piece and the perfect way to introduce non-renewal energy sources to a wide range of age groups.
