| Changdao oil spill |
Oil spill aftermath tests the legal waters: "Victims of marine pollution look to the courts for justice, reports Li Jing from Beijing.
When some of his sea cucumbers showed signs of distress in late June, Xun Shaobin did not expect that the majority of them would soon perish.
The 58-year-old sea farmer from Laoting county, Hebei province, cultivates 4.2 hectares of the marine animals.
"Some sea cucumbers began to turn a yellowish green from their normal black. So I went to other villagers to seek help, only to find out that they were facing the same problems," Xun said.
"We didn't know the cause at that time, nor did we know anything about the oil spills. In less than a month, about 60 percent of my sea cucumbers had died.""
