"Over the past 30 years, billions of US dollars have been spent in R & D planning,
response and clean up of oil spills. All of these efforts have focused on achieving
Best Response. The concept of time periods of "Technology Windows-of-Opportunity"
for a given response and clean up technology has developed from the leadership and
wisdom of researchers and responders from many nations using modeling of the weathering
of spilled oil and technology effectiveness." ; "A global paradigm shift is needed
to more effectively utilize and expedite the application of lessons learned in both
prevention and clean up. Recognition of economic, political, and legal benefits accruing
from environmental protection is good for business and critical for sustainable shipping."--Jacket
