The document summarizes the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The spill originated from an oil well 5,000 feet below the surface and was discharging an estimated 210,000-1,100,000 gallons of crude oil per day. Experts feared it would result in major environmental damage by reaching the Gulf coast and impacting fishing and tourism industries as well as hundreds of bird species. The spill grew to cover 2,500 square miles and surpassed the 1989 Exxon Valdez spill as the worst oil disaster in US history.

This document provides a summary of the history of Leeds, England from the 18th century to the late 19th century. It describes how Leeds grew from a village of 200 people in the 18th century to a large town of 30,000 people by 1801 and over 100,000 people by 1851. It discusses the poor living conditions in Leeds during this time period with overcrowding and lack of sanitation that led to a cholera outbreak in 1832 that killed over 700 people. In 1858, Queen Victoria visited Leeds to open the new town hall, her first visit since 1835, with the city being cleaned up for her arrival though many poor areas still had issues.
