Kalamazoo River oil spill


Yet another oil spill in the news,
this time it's the Kalamazoo River oil spill in Michigan,
disrupting a river basin used by humans for more than 11,000 years.
This time the Enbridge Energy Pipeline is to blame,
one of the largest pipelines in the world (3,100 miles to be exact)
The US EPA estimates 1 million gallons has dumped into the river.
The spill sprung the evacuation of 30-50 homes along the river.
