The Oil and Gas boom~
Bowling Green is an amazing place. It was the center of much attention when it first began and really it is quite an interesting place. What amazed you most about the oil and gas boom here in NWO? What about the oil's effect on the environment? What it good or bad? Would you have liked to have been a gas or oil prospector? How did these booms improve or impoverish the people of NWO? You decide and tell us?

What amazed me is the high pressure that can push the natural gas and other liquids high above the sky, namely nine feet. They didn't know the oil could be very dangerous to the environment. When the goose and ducks saw the black substance, they never came back. It is also burned all the corners of the city. Although they were not hard workers at the beginning, it became more and more tough later. I would not like to be with the oil wells... The oil bring light to people, ruined environment. I don not know if it's a good thing.
ReplyDeletei very surprised, they find the oil and get it, but just used on the light, so the waste a lot of oil, I feel pity about oil. right the gas is very expensive, so the oil is very importent in the world, righ now the war can not have not the gas, the car neither. when i saw the movie, i think they waste a lot of oil!
ReplyDeleteToday, we watch movie about oil and show develop of ohio .i feel suprised, they dig hole and find oil.they used this oil to make light,we can know we used high pressure to pull oil. oil is useful gas, people can use oil do many thing.
ReplyDeleteXiaodong! I agree that it was a terrible waste of oil. The sad thing is that the folks who found the oil didn't understand that 50-75 years in the future that it would become so important to the US and the world. Neither did they understand the gravity of what they were doing to the natural environment. I personally am horrified everytime I listen to the section of the video about how the people, the towns, and the waterways were coated in oil. Today we would consider this an environmental problem; much like what we've had with BP.
ReplyDeleteBut truly, it is amazing to think that this area of land, which was thought to be worthless, and the last area of land to be settled in Ohio, turned out to be the most valuable piece of land.
yes， it is ture. But right now, in the world the oil shortge，so we cannot waste the oil and the world waste a lot. The car use the oil, the war use the oil, the gas ues the oil, so we should find anohter energy replace the oil.
ReplyDeleteXiaodong,
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you...perhaps that's what you should do with your career! Discover that new oil replacement!
But right now in the world we have oil replacement is ethanol. And some people try to use the water tu instead of gas. so in the world find a lot, but the technology is not very advanced, they can use something instead of gas, just is very expensive.
