There is nothing man can do to disturb Anwar. Outside of nuking it or moving 10 million people there. All exploration and development will harm nothing. They will

When Prudhoe Bay was developed in the 1970's, about 2 % of the surface area over the field, or 5,000 acres, was covered by gravel for roads and drilling and production facility sites. If Prudhoe Bay were developed today, using lessons learned since the 1960's, gravel would cover less than 2,000 acres, a 60 % reduction.

2,000 in is nothing in the millions of Acres.

20,000 Acres is nothing.

Think if where you live 999 houses out of 1000 were removed. What impact would one house have. Now think 1 in 10,000.
