There’s nothing like a steep increase in gasoline prices to test Americans’ fidelity to Mother Nature. We get a sense of this from a new Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll that asked whether drilling for oil and gas should be extended to “environmentally important areas” where it’s now prohibited.
Twenty-two percent of respondents said it should be banned due to the likelihood of environmental harm; 57 percent said it should be permitted “with proper controls in place”; and a not-so-green 13 percent said the nation’s energy needs are so urgent that drilling should be allowed “even if environmentally important areas may suffer damage as a result.”
