Most people seem to forget LA has a ton of oil wells (see quote below for the numbers). They are typically pretty well disguised so people don't notice it a lot. Last year LA finally decided to stop allowing new wells and start phasing out existing ones but over the next 20 years. From the article I linked: In a 12-0 vote, the council on Friday approved an ordinance it began drafting earlier this year that will immediately ban new extraction and shut down existing operations within 20 years." Same Article: "There are 26 oil and gas fields and more than 5,000 active and idle wells in LA. Wells are spread out all over the city, including Wilmington, Harbor Gateway, downtown, West LA, South LA and the northwest San Fernando Valley." https://www.cnbc.com/2022/12/05/los-angeles-bans-oil-and-gas-drilling-within-city-limits.html#:~:text=The%20Los%20Angeles%20City%20Council%20has%20voted%20to%20ban%20new,has%20caused%20them%20health%20issues https://www.cnbc.com/2022/12/05/los-angeles-bans-oil-and-gas....
