The natural resources industry is under a microscope as environmental concerns and fluctuating commodity prices draw the attention of regulators, politicians and the general public. Operating at the center of the political debate over industry tax incentives, offshore drilling legislation, and traditional vs. alternative energy interests, the industry faces challenges with unique implications for natural resources companies.
