Satellite imagery has revealed the massive scale of routine oil pollution in the world's oceans, according to a report published by Mongabay. The findings are accompanied by an interactive map documenting oil slicks across the seas. The data suggest chronic pollution from shipping and other sources is far more widespread than previously understood.
Why now: New satellite-based research and mapping have just exposed how extensive routine oil pollution in the oceans is.
