TL;DR Summary

The Biden administration has approved ConocoPhillips' Willow Project, a massive oil drilling venture on Alaska's North Slope, despite facing opposition from environmental groups and online activism. The project is expected to generate enough oil to release 9.2 million metric tons of planet-warming carbon pollution a year. The Willow Project will almost certainly face a legal challenge from Earthjustice, an environmental law group, which is expected to file a complaint against the project soon. The project is also facing concerns about its impact on the environment and the health of Alaska Natives living closer to the planned project.
