Ghana environmentalists are concerned with laws pertaining to offshore drilling due to delays. Ghana has a lot of oil off its shore and is looking to let companies start drilling it. They are working with the government to come up with good plans to benefit the surrounding people due to some of the hassles that they will have to go through form the oil rigs. People that live on the water and fish for a living might have a hard time due to a large are of the oil rig location that will be fenced off. This is concerning the Ghana environmentalist a little because they look at this as a problem. The Ghana government is ensuring that its plans will benefit the people mainly.

What I think about this article is as follows. I am not sure why the environmentalists are so concerned with the delay. To me, this only means that the government and the oil companies are trying their hardest to come up with the best solution to the issues. It seems that in this situation, the Ghana government seems to have its people in its best interest. I think that since there has been so many problems with companies taking advantage of resources all over the world that the environmentalists feel as thought it might happen here. Well, there are on the right track to stopping it before it starts in the first place and I think they need to worry about it more when it starts to become a problem and not before.
