The waters off of California’s central coast are dotted with oil platforms, twinkling signs of underground deposits waiting for extraction. Some of the oil escapes on its own, and on the beach, globs of malleable tar dot the sand and seep from shoreline bluffs. Surfers, bathers, and campers in Carpinteria dip driftwood sticks into this shiny “black gold” and dribble their initials on nearby rocks.
