Molasses Spill Hawaii


The Difficulties of Underwater Research


There was a huge molasses spill in Hawaii do to a Matson cargo ship. This is problem for people researching and mammals and other living organisms under the ocean. It was killing coral reefs, and killing many many fish. the molasses sucked out the of the water. The ocean is usually a greenish color due to the algae in the water and now because of this spill the water is the color of cola, almost like it is laminated to the ocean floor. almost all living creatures are living in holes attempting to survive from this tragedy."I've never seen anything like this. We had a large sewage spill six or eight years ago. It was a stinky mess, but nothing like this." - Tanya Basu

 ".... An accident is an accident and no company would want an accident."- Beth Kerner
She is right, it was nobody's fault this happen, and I'm sure that nobody would want this or wish that this to have happened but no it has. People learn from their mistakes and can now take safety precautions to prevent anything like this happening again, from hurting innocent creatures and harming their environment.

  1. Nice job! One typo: I think the word "oxygen" is missing from the 4th sentence.
