Human Interest Story: First Impressions of a Young Geologist in the Bakken

A reader sent me a link to a PDF to an 8-page article in current issue of Earth Magazine. For some reason I couldn't access the magazine, but was able to find the PDF elsewhere.

The link to the PDF: http://aquadoc.typepad.com/files/october2012earth.pdf

  1. Very informative first person account of tyler's experiences.
    I was struck by the very pointed assertion in the last two sentences especially so given this young man's educational background and work experience .

    1. Thank you for taking time to comment. I am quite impressed with the links that folks send me. It makes for an interesting history of the Bakken.

      And you are correct: about the young geologist talking about "finite resources" and appropriate development.
