Gulf marine life still declining 16 years after Deepwater Horizon

More than 16 years after BP's Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, marine life has not recovered. Fishes, crustaceans and squid show persistent population declines, and chemical compounds from the spill are still being found in their tissues. The findings suggest the environmental damage from the 2010 disaster is far more lasting than initially expected.
Why now: New research showing ongoing contamination and population declines years after the spill is drawing renewed attention to BP's disaster.
