Throughout the past few years, people have seen a lot of harm on biodiversity because of technology. The first example I will give in this report is The Deepwater Horizon oil spill or also known as the BP Oil Spill. On April 20, 2010 the Deepwater Horizon oilrig exploded causing an the entire rig to sink. This in turn caused a collapse of the oil well. This collapse of the oilrig caused oil to gush from the ocean floor for 87 days. The total estimate of oil that was exerted from the ocean floor was 4.9 billion barrels. It was considered one of the biggest oil spills of all time. This was the cause of faulty technology. If the oilrig had more advanced technology, this disaster could have been avoided. The amount of biodiversity that was affected is
