Effects of Crude Oil Refraction in Ocean: An Analysis

This essay investigates the detrimental effects of crude oil refraction in the ocean, a pressing environmental concern. It begins by establishing that crude oil, a crucial global commodity, is often released into the ocean, causing significant harm. The essay then delves into key areas of impact, including the disruption of marine life, the damage to the environment, and the disruption of the sociological balance. The author supports these points with evidence from various sources, including scientific research and news reports. The essay highlights the negative consequences of oil spills on biodiversity, pollution, and the competition for oil trade. The essay aims to raise awareness among government organizations, crude oil trading boards, and environmental groups about the need to address this issue.

CRUDE OIL REFRACTION IN OCEAN AND ITS EFFECTS
Main Argument: Oil spilling or oil refraction had been taking place for a long time. Due to its
massive demand worldwide, crude oil is exported over a large amount. Due to this ocean life is
hampered on a massive level and the sustenance of life has decreased.
Crude oil is basically the un-treated oil, the raw material that is drilled out of ocean beds
or from the deserts of Middle East. There are several outcomes of this massive oil refractions.
Crude Oil is basically affects the temperature and as well as the salinity of the ocean water. The
increase of Salinity of the ocean water is affecting the Normalized Radar Cross Section (NRCS),
by contaminating and melting sea ice.
Key Points: The following are the key points which are of importance supporting my answers
by reflecting on the massive oil spills on the ocean affecting the marine life, affecting on the
environment as a whole and also by hampering the sociological balance.
Key Point One: The increasing amount of oil spills hampering the biological lifestyle of
the living organisms in the ocean. The bio-diversity is getting affected severely. The statistics
portraying the marine life span his decreased a lot compared to their natural one.
Key Point Two: The effect on the environment is directly proportionate to the hampering
of the marine life. The disorder in the bio-diversity results into extinction of various endangered
species in the marine life. As well as the global warming is taking place, along with the
pollution, which is increasing the carbon content in the water and as well as the air.
Key Point Three: The sociological balance that is the social diversity and its maintenance
is hampered to massive oil spilling. Crude Oil is quite a costly product and a form of natural
resource that is being treaded all over the world by various countries. Therefore most of the

countries try to trade oil as much as it can, but this has increased the amount of refraction of oil
in the ocean also indirectly increasing the competition for other countries to trade oil.
Audience: The audience of this essay will be the government organizations that are concerned
in saving the endangered species and maintaining the bio-diversity. Also the Crude Oil trading
board that checks the commercialization of crude oil, will also be a viable audience to this essay.
The WWF is concerned in saving and preserving the endangered species of animals of the world.
Goal: My goal in this essay is to portray how the refraction of crude oil, how it is disturbing the
lifestyle underwater. The increase in trading of oil by various countries since it is one of the most
popular and quite important natural resource on Earth, has resulted into massive spilling and
wastage of oil in the water.
Resources: I will be providing proven research and proven theory for this essay to be
successful.

American Government handles the situation.

Integrating Evidence: The research that has been done will be incorporated with information
from the mentioned journals and also the specific articles that are published in the newspapers
which are provident and trustable sources of information. The audience will be able to view the
information also will be experiencing a collective data provided from journals and articles all
over the world. Which will support my topic of Oil Refraction and its Effects on Marine Life and
also will raise awareness for it since the information provided is from different parts of the world
experiencing the same problem.
