Environment Groups Set for New Fight Over Drilling on U.S.-Managed Utah Land
The article mentions how U.S companies want to buy leases to drill for oil and gasses in a Utah monument. Some environment groups are beginning to worry about the safety of this monument. The U.S companies are now beginning to auction off thousands of parcels. People are now starting to fight back.
I chose this article because we were recently talking about pollution in our world. Global warming i think. Anyways this really caught my interest because I see now that there is habitat destruction still happening currently. We were mostly naive about these problems, we don't think about the consequences of our actions. We don't see the big picture.
I think they should really think companies should think this over. Auctioning off parcels to make more money seems good at first sight, but when you see the big picture not all is nice. These people are basically destroying the environment. While there are some benefits like better products and improver the economy these are minimal compared to the negatives. The most noticeable consequence is the destruction of habitats and the environment. It seems that the opposing team in this conflict seems to have excellent reasons on why they shouldn't auction off parcels of land.
