The Wilderness Society says parts of the Los Padres National Forest is too wild to drill. How will the government and industry respond? They say that drilling should only be done in parts of the forest where there is already an impact from drilling - like the Sespe Wilderness in Ventura County. What do you think? Should more drilling happen in the Sespe in order to protect the untouched parts of Los Padres? Or should new drilling on national forest lands be banned altogether? Or should the industry be allowed to proceed as they have for decades, obtaining leases, and permits to drill wells as they explore for oil and gas that has been untapped to fulfill our ever increasing energy demands? Los Padres National Forest is one of the top places in America considered "too wild to drill,"according to a new report from The Wilderness Society. It highlights a dozen of the nation's most unique landscapes that it says are threatened by oil and gas drilling.
