With the increased global demand in oil and gas, undiscovered areas of the world should be oppened up to access more resources. To what extent do you agree?

The continuous burning of fossil

is the major contributor to the environmental problem plaguing mother earth over the

However

, with the demand for oil and gas, being at an all-time high, some people believe that undiscovered areas of the world should now be tapped to get access to more of their resources. I disagree with

essay.

First

has resulted in many of the ice caps around Antarctica and the Arctic beginning melting, thereby causing the sea levels to rise, which will not only cause the extinction of the animals living in these regions but

encourage their citizens to ditch the plastic and move on to more recyclable materials, and to set up a recycling plant in various locations across their cities. An example of

would be in Finland, where the majority of the electricity is produced by wind turbines located outside the major cities. In conclusion, whilst fossil

have helped governments develop their respective countries to the levels they are at today, it is not the way to go in the future. The faster we realise
