Informative but....

But the biggest oil spill in the world belongs to mother nature herself by
a long shot, spanning from Alberta to Saskatchewan, they call them
oilsands as right on the surface to 10 meters right off the surface be oil
and sand. Sort of like an oil field on the surface. Indians use to coat
their canoes with it to seal them tight.

You clean up the sand, you have beach sand and oil. We are doing well in
learning how to clean it up. When done, a new lake for boaters with much
cleaner sand.
