The increased world demand for oil and gas has made it necessary for locating these sources in remote and untouched areas. Do you think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages of damaging these natural areas?

It is suggested by many a man that

oil

drilling should take place in those spaces where humans have failed to interfere in order to meet the escalating demand of

in society.

This

essay disagrees with

this

statement because

although

this

suggestion may reduce the price of the

fuel

, the demerits in the form of threat to the

life

of living organisms and marine soul certainly outstrip the merits. To commence with, finding the

fuel

sources in untouched

areas

can

cost

human civilization dear in long run.

Firstly

, the initial

cost

of settling the infrastructure in the harsh conditions of remote

areas

is quite high . Even if the scientists get successful in working at the deserted islands, the chances of accidents caused by pipe leakages will always waver around their heads, and the catastrophic destruction caused by

such

accidents to the marine

life

would be uncontrollable. Who can forget the

oil

spill in Alaska in 1989, as a consequence of which 250000 sea birds and 2800 sea otters lost their

life

, balancing the ecosystem? Not far behind is the risk of

life

that is

evolved in doing

such

drilling operations in the far-away

areas

. The places like Alaska and Antarctica are equipped with -50c temperature which is certainly unhabitable for the individuals working there.

Therefore

in a bid to extract

oil

from the natural environment,which is totally unjustified on humanitarian grounds. Notwithstanding the risks involved in

oil

extraction,the economists believe that exploring the serene arenas will bombard us with a huge supply of

oil

that could lower the current escalated rates of

oil

in several countries of the world.

Thus

, the lower prices would easily be affordable by the weaker section of society ,

therefore

boosting the economy of the country .

For instance

, several middle-class Indians were unable to manage their household expenses, when it comes to reaching the price of diesel and petroleum at 100 per litre as per the recent survey conducted by the Human Resource Department of India. To conclude, while every growing need of human beings come at a

cost

, like the

cost

of

oil

extraction from the remote

areas

will be paid by marine creatures and the

oil

specialists working there, despite the fact that

this

extraction will meet the rising demand of

fuel

at the global level.

Thus

, the disadvantages outlaw the merits.
