This Sept. 1, 2019 handout photo released by Instituto Verdeluz, shows the carcass of a turtle covered in oil on Sabiaguaba beach, in Fortaleza, Ceara state, Brazil. Brazil's main environmental agency said Thursday it has detected 105 crude oil spills from an undetermined source polluting the waters of the country's northeast coast this month. "So far there is no evidence of contamination of fish and crustaceans," the institute said, though it said the spills had killed seven sea turtles. (Instituto Verdeluz via Instituto Verdeluz)
