Hi Ionut Andrei

Some suggestions:

- 'the political responsible' is not an expression you'll hear in English. How about 'all politicians of the planet'? (a politician is, in my opinion, implicitly politicly responsible )
- to bring before the International etc.
- 'major' is much more commonly used than 'mega' (except in REALLY informal speach)
- the Gulf of Mexico
- of course, the Bay of Mexico is not in the Niger Delta, which is what your text appears to say. Better leave away the word 'in' here
- by setting up an independent international commission to investigate this
- to prohibit (is more official and therefore fits better here)
- alternatives for fossil fuels
- 'economies of the energy
'energy saving'

Let me know if you agree and I can set a poll
