The World

For today’s Geo Quiz we’re looking for strip of Australian coastline bordered by the Indian Ocean to the west and the Timor Sea to the north. The answer is the Kimberley Coast, where this week an undersea oil pipeline ruptured and is spewing crude oil and natural gas into the sea. Anchor Jeb Sharp finds out more from John Carey, director of the Pew Environment Group’s Kimberley Conservation Project.
