They should check their pipes more often so that accidents like this don't happen. Since they say that it had happened before around the same area they should have kept up on that area especially if the wind hadn't changed then the oil would have kept spreading, and our beautiful ocean would have been polluted. If that happened we would lose lots of tourists, so we wouldn't benefit financially. It would also be very sad if all our fish and other sea creatures died because of a careless mistake that could have been avoided. I am very glad that Esso was able to control the oil, and I hope it never happens again.
