Topples:
Topples are where rocks pivot and fall away from a slope.

Who is at fault?

The Gulf Oil Spill was a big tragedy, and I think a lot of people are at fault for the Gulf Oil Spill. I think that mostly the people who work for and with BP are at fault because they did something wrong and they were the ones operating the machinery. I also think that everyone is at fault. We are the ones who use the oil BP is producing. We are the ones who demand more and more. The people who are at fault the most should be punished, but not severely because everyone is at fault. I think the spill is enough of a punishment because it cost us a lot of time, money and trouble to clean up which I think, is just as bad as any other punishment. So, that is who I think is at fault and how they should be punished.

Petroleum

  • What is is composed of?
  • How is it formed?




  • Petroleum is  composed of  a complicated mix of hydrocarbons and organic compounds that are found beneath the Earth's surface.
  • It is naturally forming, it forms from old fossils. Higher temperatures usually produce lighter petroleum.
