= = ** TO DRILL OR NOT TO DRILL? ** **Introduction **

Energy, everyone needs it to live and survive in modern everyday lives, but the country is using a source of energy that can and will run out. The country hasn’t run out of oil yet, and there is still more that can be drilled for and consumed, but eventually it will run out. Combine this with the fact that oil drilling is very harsh on the earth’s environment. There are better, cleaner energy sources that we can use that can replace oil as our main energy source, and save our environment in the process. Are we ready to make the switch now? Some say yes, and some say no. We will listen to what both sides have to say on this issue.

**Thesis**

The goal of this wikispace is to come to a decision on whether America should continue to expand its oil drilling efforts or begin to invest money and time into cleaner safer energy technologies.
