Abstract:
Production, distribution, and use of petroleum have polluted our air, water, and land. Our continuing reliance on petroleum adds to this contamination. The state of California operates programs to address many of these problems. Though these programs are effective in narrow areas, they are too small and underfunded to address the full scope of petroleum pollution in California. Petroleum pollution cleanup programs need reliable funding now.
