An aerial view of oil slick from the sunken tanker MT Terra Nova in the waters of Manila Bay on July 29, 2024 near the coastal village of Pamarawan, Malolos, Bulacan province, Philippines. Industrial fuel oil from the capsized MT Terra Nova tanker is leaking into Manila Bay, with the country potentially facing its worst oil spill disaster. The tanker, carrying 1.4 million liters of fuel, sank during Typhoon Gaemi, resulting in an oil slick stretching 12-14 km. The Philippine Coast Guard is racing to contain the spill, which jeopardizes the livelihoods of many coastal communities dependent on the bay. (Photo by Ezra Acayan/Getty Images)
