Oil spill in Ogale fishing community needs our Nonprofit Organization, Environment Aware and Restoration Network( EARN) support to ameliorate the suffering of the victims. Please donate and thank you.

The water in Ogale, a rural community in Nigeria, is so toxic and polluted with oil that it comes out brown and stinks of sulphur. Children and families get sick just trying to bathe or stay hydrated. In Bille, a fishing community of around 45 islands surrounded entirely by water, there are no fish left. Oily water seeps into people’s homes, and, without a source of income, money is scarce. The signs that once warned people of the dangers of chronic pollution are covered in rust.
