Image description

A man watches November 30, 2002 an immense pool of thick fuel oil as it homed in on the Galician coast in northwestern Spain and is now only about seven miles (12 kms) from Cape Finisterre, threatening new punishment for beaches, wildlife and fisheries already hit by severe pollution. The 26-year-old Bahamas-flagged vessel Prestige took some 70,000 tons of viscous fuel oil to the bottom of the Atlantic when it finally broke up on November 19, priming an ecological time-bomb for the scenic shores of Galicia. The thick oil has washed up on beaches and rocks over a 400 km stretch of the dramatic Galician coast, coating seabirds and endangering shellfish stocks vital to the local economy.
