US Gulf Spill Update: Scientists Doubt Feds

摘要

Researchers at the University of Georgia have challenged a recent federal government report claiming that most of the oil from the BP spill in the US Gulf of Mexico was either collected, broken down by natural processes or safely dispersed. Researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the US Geological Survey (USGS) reported earlier this month that an estimated 74% of the oil had been scooped up, broken down by bacteria or had evaporated.
