Are there any drawbacs to oil (such as pollution ect) in Alaska?
Of course there is. Many oil tankers end up spilling oil for one reason or another. This ruins the environment and kills birds and animals. I suggest you watch the story of the Exxon Valdez accident in Alaska. The damage done from the spill will last for a 100 years. There are no drawbacks to the oil itself but to the transportation of oil. Pipelines can damage the tundra and tanker ships can spill oil into the bay/sea/ocean.
