Apparently, Iran is in the top 10 of a list of countries that have caused the most environmental destruction in the world. Increasing population and the advancement of technology has been the main factors in this environmental problem. If the Iranians don’t devise a alternative plan that keeps the environment in mind, there will be no more trees left in the country in 100 years if they keep up their normal course. This would be a huge problem for the next generation if not regulated and somewhat out under control. Iran has to take into consideration the 30000 vessels that provide 60 percent of the oil to the world. They also have to look at pond and water management. This environmental concert first arose when an oil company cut down 4000 trees to make way for a pipeline. Their compensation for these atrocities to the trees, 700000 dollars.
What do I think about this article? I am not surprised that Iran is one of the biggest polluters of the world. What with all their oil and people, it should come as no surprise. Then, the Iranian government was bought out for seven hundred thousand dollars from a super right oil company to cut down basically most of what’s left of trees in this country. There will have to be some very passionate and strong government people to start to control what is going on in this very time. In a society that is so centered on oil, government regulation of environmental concerns will have to walk a thin line if even present.

I think that this is a good article. It might make people finally devise a plan to have better oil use and better alternative fuel supplies.
