The most recent oil spill may have happened several weeks ago, but it is still a current issue. The leak is releasing approximately 5,000 barrels of oil a day.
Salons around the country [and perhaps the world, but at least around America] are collecting hair to donate. Hair collects the oil from our head, so why not collect the oil in the ocean? Some salons are collecting nylons/stockings also. I have heard that the hair gets put into the nylons and then put into the ocean to sop up the oil.
For a more detailed and scientific description and information about helping to donate, check out this website.
