What should you do if oil or fuel spills into water?

If oil or fuel spills into water, it’s crucial to act quickly to mitigate environmental damage. First, alert local authorities and spill response teams to handle the situation appropriately. If safe to do so, you can deploy absorbent materials or booms to contain the spill and prevent it from spreading further. Avoid using detergents or dispersants unless directed by professionals, as these can cause additional harm to aquatic life.
