Shale oil is unconventional oil produced from oil shale by
pyrolysis, hydrogenation, or thermal dissolution. Most resulting oil can be used as fuel.
Products can be used to the same purposes as those of crude oil. European
countries forge ahead with developing controversial energy source. Slashed gas
prices and led nations from China to Portland. Mining for oil shale involved
many environmental impacts on surface and underground, including acid drainage
by sudden rapid exposure of buried materials, introduction of metals including
mercury into waters and groundwater, and erosion, sulfur gas emissions and air
pollution caused by the production of particulates.
Oil is becoming one of those things that everyone fights
after. Oil is destroying many things, the economy and planet, and people and
countries themselves. Everything needs oil to work and that is way it is so
fought after is it tough not to want it and depend on it. But since we have
reached our peak oil and are now coming down the hill, things need to start
changing to we can stop our dependence and change the world and start using
better resources. Oil is affecting our world and the more we use it the worst it
is becoming to get. The pollution that we are creating can take years to get
rid of and with the fact that we just keeping more and more back on to it will
never stop and take forever to get rid of. Destroying our planet is not a safe
way. It hurts the homes of the people that live there and the animals that live
there. Resources will begin to run dry and there will be nothing we can do.
