Santa Barbara Channel’s Natural Oil Seeps
If you've ever been on a boat there, you would know the seepage is all over the place. I'm not trying to lessen the importance and horrible situation of this current major oil leak... but the amount of sensationalism surrounding the oil spill and how that area will be ruined for decades is also appalling.
Should be about time for another anti-oil protest by those showing up in their petroleum produced kayaks. IRONY is watching Seattle enviros protest oil…
These natural seeps have leaked gas and oil through cracks below the ocean surface for the past thousands of years.

They came in autoÂmoÂbiles fueled by oil, wearÂing clothÂing made from oil, to protest oil, in kayaks made from oil. Then they tweeted their phoÂtos on phones made from oil and drove home.
Share the irony.
