Boston Globe Big Picture: Oil Spill in Dalian, China

Oh man.

This is awful. What’s even more awful is that according to CCTV’s numbers, this is just a speck compared to the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. CCTV reports that this was about 400,000 gallons of oil compared to the estimated 94-184 million gallons for the BP spill. (CCTV’s numbers should usually be taken with a grain of salt, but still.)
