Regarding ANWR, the General Accounting Office did a study last year of the more than 500 national wildlife reserves in the U.S. and it turns out that we produce oil and gas or extract minerals on more than 100 of them. (And the Audubon Society allows oil and gas production on one of its own wildlife reserves.) Not much talk about environmental disaster at any of these sites. So producing oil in ANWR is not without precedent.
