Demand for oil and gas is increasing and so finding new sources in remote and untouched areas is a necessity.do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?
Due to our growing population , our demand for natural
resources
as a source of energy is Use synonyms
also
rapidly increasing. Some suggest that these finite Linking Words
resources
should be researched in isolated and untouched Use synonyms
areas
. While Use synonyms
this
suggestion does come with many benefits, the drawbacks are much greater.
On the one side , many advantages are prevalent. Linking Words
To begin
, fossil fuel Linking Words
resources
are non-renewable. If they are continued to be used at the current rate, ultimately, they will deplete and eventually finish. Use synonyms
For example
, gas and oil can be found in countries Linking Words
such
as Saudi Arabia and Russia. Linking Words
However
, there is only a certain amount of reserve until it depletes. Linking Words
Therefore
, more places need to be discovered in remote Linking Words
areas
like the antarctic to help replenish these fossil fuels and provide for the increasing population demands.
Use synonyms
On the other hand
, the cons, unfortunately, outweigh the pros. Linking Words
Firstly
, using isolated Linking Words
areas
Use synonyms
such
as the Antarctic or Sahara can cause damage to rare species. Linking Words
For instance
, in these countries , there are rare breeds of animals namely polar bears or the Saharan cheetah that are already endangered species. Linking Words
Consequently
, digging up these Linking Words
areas
could lead to loss of habitat endangering species or causing them to become extinct. Use synonyms
Similarly
, natural scenery around these regions is lost, whilst gaining the burden of multiple types of pollution. Linking Words
Hence
causing Linking Words
further
damage to the beautiful environment. Linking Words
Moreover
, due to the increased impact of global warming, solutions to decreased oil and gas reserves should be eco-friendly as well as finding alternative means. To cite an example, Linking Words
instead
of using non-renewable Linking Words
resources
, renewable materials should be considered namely wind, solar and geothermal. Wind power is currently being used in the UK as a sustainable form of energy. Use synonyms
Thus
making these options inexhaustible.
To conclude , Linking Words
although
the demand is increasing for oil and gas , I believe that rather than looking for more Linking Words
areas
to dig up and intervene with nature, we should consider alternative, more sustainable and infinite Use synonyms
resources
to meet Use synonyms
this
requirement.Linking Words
