What if the willow project is approved?

If the Willow Project proposed by ConocoPhillips is approved, it would result in the development of a large-scale oil drilling operation in Alaska’s North Slope region. This project is expected to create jobs and boost domestic energy production, but it is also likely to have significant environmental impacts on the region, including risks to local wildlife and habitats.

The project is currently under review by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which will assess the environmental impacts of the project and determine whether or not it can proceed. If the project is approved, it could have far-reaching economic and environmental consequences for the region and the country as a whole.
