DESCRIPTION

In one day the United states consumes, on average, 20 million barrels of oil per day. About 60% is imported from different countries. Given the state of politics the world is in today concerning oil production and its future this puts the united states into a dependent role. So this leads the discussion to the arctic national wildlife refuge or ANWR. This is a protected area in northeastern Alaska which contains 19.8 million acres of land. Of this, there is a section called the “1002 area” which is 1.5 million acres of prospective drilling sites. It holds about 7.7 billion barrels of recoverable crude oil.

Begin the process of extracting the oil

Or we can continue to protect a wildlife refuge.
