Where should oil come from?

AS WE pointed out in an editorial a few weeks ago, one of the most remark- able human foibles is that people are always suspicious of something new just because it’s new. The example we cited was the near hysterical opposition of some people to smart meters and their supposedly harmful radio waves (which actually aren’t harmful at all), while those very same people happily accept nat- ural gas and electricity in their homes — things which are truly hazardous. Another example is front and center in this week’s news, with the vehement calls by environmental activists for a ban on fracking on Monterey County. Of course, pumping, refining and moving oil is a dangerous and dirty busi- ness. Anybody who’s ever been to an oil field or a refinery knows that. Even pumping gas into your car can be messy and perilous, if you don’t do it exactly right. The oil industry takes a high toll on the environment and human health pretty much wherever it operates. Nevertheless, it’s a good bet almost everybody at the planning commission’s hearing on fracking in Salinas on Wednesday got there by using a personal motor vehicle, and very few of them have plans to give their cars up anytime soon. So the question is: Where should the oil, gasoline and other petroleum

products those cars use come from? “How come you never came to see me when I lived in Torrance?” Nobody wants an oil well right in his backyard, of course, and the fact that is said by the PWM campaign. they don’t doesn’t necessarily make them hypocrites.
