California oil spill legal fight likely to last years BRIAN MELLEY, LOS ANGELES,THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Inquiry: Why might the legal battle take years when action is needed now to clean up and prevent further spills? How might oil companies working offshore improve the process to greatly reduce the chance of future spills?
Activity: Collect data and information on the oil company involved. Identify possible stakeholders/players involved in the recent oil spill off the coast of California. Conduct an issue analysis to gain insight into the stakeholders involved to start developing an action plan. Create a spatial journal mapping out the event for a visual representation. Develop an action plan to either 1) help direct the clean up or 2) help reduce the chance of this event happening in the future. How possible is it to reduce this type of event happening in the future given the track record of oil companies? Create a story map to communicate your findings.
