Author's Note: Intially I wrote this paper for my Social Studies Class, but I then I thought, why can't I write it for Language Arts too? By reading this paper you will understand why drilling in Alaska will not help our country very much.
Animals dying, economy changing minamally:this is what can happen if the US drills for oil in ANWR. Everyone has their own opinions, like some people may think that it is a good idea for the US to drill for oil, and then there are the people who disagree with that and say that the US shouldn’t drill for oil. Drilling for oil isn’t a good thing but it isn’t a bad thing, the US should not drill for oil because it could do so many bad things to ANWR.
Drilling for oil can do so much damage to the ANWR; it could kill all the wildlife and ruin the environment. If the US were to drill for oil it could kill all the animals and wildlife. If that was to happen we could ruin something that we don’t even own. Think about all those poor helpless animals that would get killed for no reason at all. We should not drill for oil it could wreck the homes of animals giving birth and their natural habitats.
Say we go ahead and we drill for oil, and something goes wrong. We would be the people who would have to clean up our mess, that we created and help clean up their environment. If we don’t decontaminate their environment fast enough, we could start to cause pollution and kill all the animals that live in the ocean or lake. Think about what that is doing to us… that is making us look like fools, embarrassing us, showing Alaska that we are not responsible enough to drill for oil safely. We do not want that happening.
Trees, grass, and bushes are all other things that we could kill if we have an oil spillage. If we don’t have trees we don’t have oxygen, if we don’t have air we can’t breathe if we can’t breathe we will all die. Now is that something that you guys want to happen? I for sure don’t. I am only 13 years old I have my whole life to live… hopefully. If we kill the grass and bushes with oil, what will some of the animals have to eat?
The US should not drill for oil because it could do so many bad things to ANWR. Many people thought that we should drill for oil and gave me many good reasons to think about changing my mind but I am going to keep my ground and fight for the no drilling for oil. There are more reasons to not drill for oil in Alaska than there are to drill.
