This large-scale oil drilling project will be conducted on an oil reserve that is similar to Indiana. <\/p>\n<p>Initial plans called for 180,000 barrels per day of oil production and 500 million barrels in its lifetime. The five pads were requested. CNN reported that 9.2 Million Metres of Carbon could be released into the atmosphere. This would roughly equal 2 million gasoline-powered cars. <\/p>\n<p>Biden made a commitment to not approve of the 2020 election cycle debate. &#8220;new oil and gas permitting on public lands and waters.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Number one, no more subsidies for the fossil fuel industry, no more drilling on federal lands, no more drilling, including offshore, no ability for the oil industry to continue to drill, period, ends, number one,&#8221; He stated that at the time. <\/p>\n<p>The approval of the Willow Project has drawn ire from progressives and environmentalist groups such as Sen.
