The MSC Napoli cargo ship has been run aground in Lyme bay in Devon after being damaged in last weeks storms. Coastguards and anti-pollution teams are on alert after the ship carrying potentially dangerous chemicals was beached off the "World Heritage site" Jurassic coast.
The ship is carrying almost 2,400 containers, about 150 of which are said to hold hazardous chemical substances.
For Year 8 this may be particularly significant as it is very close to the site for the Exmouth Camp.
