Summary:
All kinds of ships have been caught
dumping oil in the ocean so they
don't have to pay for proper disposal.
Rebecca Williams reports that the
annual amount is more than eight
times the Exxon Valdez spill.
And... thawing tundra in Alaska
releases carbon and contributes
to global warming. Amy Mayer
met one scientist who actually
wants to thaw some tundra in
order to study it.
