This
 essay explains my take and reasons for
this
 issue. First of all, building
oil
 and
gas
 factories in remote and natural
places
 will threaten the ecosystem in that particular place. It is well known that remote and natural
areas
 have their own ecosystem between living things
such
 as animals and plants, and unliving materials
such
 as rocks and dirt. Building new
areas
 to find
oil
 and
gas
 will disrupt the ecosystem, causing disturbances

 their daily needs. Ruining the natural

 to find new

 of

gas
 will destroy their place and diminish their food

.
This
 effect needs to be considered because it can cause extinctions of certain clans. In conclusion,
oil
 and
gas
 serve as the main energy to support our lives, yet there are better ways to seek alternatives for our energy
sources
 rather than destroying remote and untouched natural
places
 that will lead to the extinction of certain animals, plants, and even our own society.
