- Oil is a common and highly visible form of pollution
where even a small quantity can cause a lot of harm to
the environment.
- The Oil Care Campaign was set up by the
Environment Agency, in
association with SEPA
in Scotland and Environment
and Heritage Service (EHS) in Northern
Ireland, to reduce oil pollution by providing guidance
on and facilities for the safe disposal and management
of oil.
- The Environment Agency, SEPA and EHS has installed a network
of oil banks that accept used engine oil
for recycling.
