Emergency workers in Trinidad and Tobago are racing to clean up a massive oil spill after a mystery vessel ran aground near the Caribbean island, casting a pall over Carnival tourism.
The spill was "not under control" as of Sunday, said Prime Minister Keith Rowley, who added that the country is grappling with a national emergency.
The mystery vessel capsized Wednesday in waters off the Caribbean island, having made no emergency calls, with no sign of crew, and no clear sign of ownership.

When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin’
“Fellas, it’s too rough to feed ya”
At seven PM, a main hatchway caved in, he said
“Fellas, it’s been good to know ya”

This spill was not immediately blamed on Climate Change. In fact, there is no mention of Climate Change in the entire article.
Therefore, the author of the article must be fired. And he must never be allowed to work again.

Bomb it and set it on fire. Like in WWII. Burns a lot of the oil off.

Someone took the ship who shouldn’t have had it.
Not sea worthy - not insured and abandoned it once they knew it was going to sink.
Drug traders - terrorists - pirates - or worse..
