An explosion at the '''''[[Wikipedia:Deepwater Horizon|Deepwater Horizon]]''''' offshore drilling rig on [[April 20]], [[2010]] precipitated an ongoing leak and resultant '''oil spill''' that has expanded through the [[Gulf of Mexico]] into Florida waters (which were protected by a state moratorium on [[offshore drilling]]) and threatens the [[World's Whitest Beaches|beaches]] and [[wildlife habitats]] — and by extension, the [[tourism]] and [[fishing]] industries — of Northwest Florida.
