The Gulf of Mexico is awash in oil, resulting from the April 11, 2010 explosion on the Deepwater Horizon drilling platform, owned and run by BP. The Society has published content that relates to oil spills and the oil industry. Find answers to questions such as how the Exxon Valdez oil spill was viewed immediately after the accident and in retrospect, or why there's a large Vietnamese community along the Gulf Coast. In a trip back to San Francisco just after the Summer of Love, see how important community involvement was in cleaning up a 1971 oil spill in San Francisco Bay. Then take a trip around the world and survey the global oil scene in places as diverse as Siberia, the Niger Delta, and the North Slope of Alaska.
