This handout photo provided by the Smithsonian shows dead juvenile menhaden fish floating to the surface during a dead zone event in Narragansett Bay, R.I. Global warming is likely playing a bigger role than previously thought in dead zones in waterways around the world and its only going to get worse, according to a new study.Dead zones occur in oceans, lakes and rivers when fertilizer runoff clog waterways with nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorous, which leads to an explosion of microbes that consumes oxygen and leaves the water starving for oxygen, harming marine life.

This Dec. 1, 2010 photo provided by the University of Georgia, made from the submarine Alvin, shows dead brittle stars on a still-damaged sea floor about 10 miles north of the BP oil rig accident. Brittle stars are normally bright orange and tightly wrapped around corals, but these were white and loose. We consistently saw dead fauna (animals) at all these sites, said Marine biologist Samantha Joye of the University of Georgia. Its likely theres a fairly large area impacted, she said.

This is an Jan. 2011 handout artist rendering provided by NASA. NASAs Kepler telescope is finding that relatively smaller planets _ still larger than Earth, but tinier than Jupiter _ are proving more common outside our solar system than once thought. This drawing is of one of the smallest planets that Kepler has found, a rocky planet called Kepler-10b, that measures 1.4 times the size of Earth and where the temperature is more than 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit.

This handout photo provided by NASA, taken April 12, 2010 by the Hubble Space Telescope, shows an unusual, ghostly green blob of gas appears to float near a normal-looking spiral galaxy. NASA released Monday the Hubble Space Telescopes first picture of the mysterious giant glowing green blob of gas called Hannys Voorwerp. The blob is the size of our Milky Way galaxy and is 650 million light years away. Each light year is about 6 trillion miles. The blob was discovered in 2007 by Dutch school teacher Hanny van Arkel.

Boycott Big Oil? Prepare to give up everything

This image from video provided by BP PLC early Thursday morning, June 10, 2010 shows oil continuing to pour out at the site of the Deepwater Horizon oil well in the Gulf of Mexico. The containment cap on the ruptured well is capturing 630,000 gallons a day and pumping it to a ship at the surface. The government has estimated 600,000 to 1.2 million gallons are leaking per day, but a scientist on a task force studying the flow said the actual rate may be between 798,000 gallons and 1.8 million.

Team says much more oil may have flowed from well
