Arctic showdown

Article Abstract:

Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is under threat by oil companies who want to drill in what conservationists describe as the biological heart of the Alaskan Arctic. On the other hand, the US Congress, dismissed the controversy in a filibuster-proof budget bill that, if passed by the Senate, drilling was authorized, instead of discussing the potential threat to the region's wildlife.
