Microbes imrove the oxygen level in the Gulf of Mexico by Zivka Deleva

Finally some good news from the so much talked British Petroleum oil spill. Scientists have discovered a type of microbes that clean up the oil, they don’t diminish the level of oxygen and don’t create the so-called “dead zones” in the Gulf of Mexico. Some areas where the spill happened have lost oxygen for 20 percent, but that still is not something to be afraid of, because that is not enough for the possible killing of the living world in the sea. Federal researchers have written a report 95 pages long with the actual situation after the oil spill. By far, BP has released 771,000 gallons of chemical dispersants. For the water to be classified as ! a dead zone, it is needed for the oxygen to be forever gone in 90 percents. Almost for one year, the federal officials have been fighting with the lack of the element that means life. One of the biggest reasons why the oxygen level has stayed that big, according to experts might be the natural mixing in the Gulf, which allowed bringing oxygen from other areas into the lower oxygen levels. Not everybody agreed with the idea of using dispersants to improve the oxygen level. The one factor that approves its use might be that it helps the bacteria to degrade the oil, but it also tends to hide the oil right below the surface. In only three months, about 172 million gallons of oil have been spilled out of the Gulf of Mexico which created the worst oil spill that has ever happened in the United States of America.
