In this activity, learners investigate how wind can create surface currents and how waves move. Learners also discover how wind can affect oil spills.

In this activity (on pages 18-29) learners explore the impact of the March 24, 1989 oil spill in Alaska caused by the Exxon Valdez tanker.

In this simulation, learners explore how ocean currents spread all kinds of pollution—including oil spills, sewage, pesticides and factory waste—far beyond where the pollution originates.

In this activity, learners explore how environmental engineers might approach solving the problem of an oil spill.

In this activity, learners consider how oil spills behave in the ocean and what impact they have on marine wildlife.

In this simulation activity, learners observe what can happen when ocean waves churn up water and oil from an oil spill.

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.
