Abstract
- (Bloomberg) -- The mysterious oil spill that hit Brazil's coastline two months ago has reached the archipelago of Abrolhos, a national marine park that's home to the greatest biodiversity in the southern Atlantic Ocean -- the waters where humpback whales migrate to breed. The spill has affected one third of Brazil's coastline, or about 1,400 miles (2250 kilometers), with authorities collecting 4,000 tons of oil from the beaches. [Extracted from the article]
