They are drilling for oil in Alska right now, but If you are referring to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWAR), the answer is that it would disturb and destroy one of the last great wilderness areas on planet earth. Also, if all the oil in ANWAR was extracted, it would only satisfy the U.S. demand for 9 months. And even if they started to drill tomorrow, it would take at least 10 years before any oil came out of the ground. In 10 years there will be many more better energy sources. Omg im a hot sexy bitcha! no you're not get ova yourself.
