Help The Oil Spill In The Gulf

Best Friends Pet Care is finding an interesting way to help clean up the oil spill in the gulf.  We are collecting hair from the dogs being groomed with us.  You might be wondering what the tow things have to do with each other.  Well, hair is very efficient at collecting oil out of the air, off surfaces like your skin and out of the water, even petroleum oil. Products called Hair Mats and Hair Booms are made from hair and fur clippings to help contain oil spills.

There is plenty of information about the concept here:
