It is believed that unrevealed areas
of the globe should be exposed for.
more resources to fulfill the
need of oil and gas. This essay
disagrees with the view that there
isn't any necessity to open the
unexposed area for Resources. Firstly
this essay will discuss the fact
that the importance of finding an
alternative use of oil and gas and
secondly, discuss the consequences
of these resources.
In present day, the demand of the oil
and gas gradually rising that's why
it's essential to use the areas of
resource which are not searched
yet. But it's really a great
matter of concern that what
will happen while those undiscovered resources will used up? Therefore, it's necessary
to find out a alternative
component of the oil and gas.
For instance, In New Zealand, they
started solar energy as a substitute
of electricity.
However, the result of unleashing
the area for resources will
create a malign impact on environment. Until now, for resources
many trees were cut down,
forests and Jungle are turning into
a desert etc. As a result, greenhouse gas is gradually increasing,
the rainfall is decreasing, many natural creatures are in the face of disappearance etc. If this continues,
one day the earth will end up as
a dust. For instance, while Australia is a developed country, they are facing many natuaral disaster
such as tornado, sidr and flood etc.
In conclusion, in the world of homogenization it's not impossible to find out a alternative way to keep our lives
safe.
