> There is a ton of offshore oil in Southern California
There was a lot of offshore drilling before 1969,
before blow-out protectors were required,
until one big spill at the cusp of the environmental
movement turned most of the California coast against
oil drilling, and anything like it offshore, even,
ironically, off-shore wind farms - for now.
