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

Nowadays, the need for oil and gas has been increasing which forced us to locate more of them from those undiscovered areas. Generally speaking, there are both advantages and disadvantages to digging out these sources. From my perspective, the cons are far more than

In a word, negative effects completely beat positive effects, so the advantages definitely don't outweigh the disadvantages. The oil and gas used to provide us benefits far more than anything else,
