The guests talked about drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), and ANWR measures in the energy bill before Congress. According to the George W. Bush administration, approval for drilling in ANWR would be an important component of an energy bill. Competitive Enterprise Institute International Environmental Policy Director Myron Ebell and other supporters of drilling claimed that investigating the amount of oil in ANWR was an important part of planning national energy policy for the future. Wilderness Society Director of Refuges & Wildlife Jim Waltman and others who opposed drilling in ANWR said that the refuge was a unique and fragile ecosystem that needed to be protected, and that the amount of oil likely to be recovered would be insignificant compared to consumption. close
