The US Senate has passed a bill allowing oil drilling in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, fulfilling a priority for a number of (so-called) conservatives. In a vote as part of their sweeping tax overhaul bill early on Saturday morning, Republicans rejected an amendment led by Democratic Senator Maria Cantwell of Washington state to block drilling. The 52-48 vote was an achievement for Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, who is chairwoman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee.

Well let's break this down shall we ? The United States has an area of 3,796,742 sq mi and a population of 325,365,189, while China has an area of 3,705,407 sq mi and a population of 1,403,500,365. In other words, China has 4 times more people on less land than we have and they seem to be doing okay.( or at least they're fixing the problem in time.) Edited by _g R_, Dec 26 2017, 12:46 PM.
