On April 20, the Deepwater Horizon oilrig, owned by British Petroleum (BP), exploded and sank into the Gulf of Mexico. Eleven workers died, and the sea turned black in mourning, covered with another 757,000 liters of oil each and every day since the accident, according to the Associated Press. Amid the shouts predicting the doom of the Gulf coast ecosystem, some experts argue that if appropriate measures are taken, the environment will rebound over time.
