issue. Being the world's largest consumer of oil, the U. S. continually looks for ways to satisfy the demand for the resource. Some believe the
remote and pristine Alaskan wilderness holds the answer to the oil question. Alaska is home to many natural resources, including extensive oil
reserves, but drilling for all in Alaska has become a contentious topic. The 2010 Deepwater Horizon incident in the Gulf of Mexico-in which oil
