Wash the dog with Dawn dish soap to remove the Tar?
“Dawn” is a Procter & Gamble product. P&G still conducts cruel and unnecessary animal testing. Do not buy Dawn or any P&G products until such time as that company stops torturing animals.
OMG- all wildlife rescue agencies use Dawn to wash oil off and save sea animals. Pls stop with the call for a boycott, you are being ridiculous.
Long timers here swear that it is worse now than it has ever been. Are all of them wrong?
Because…well…Earth.
Contractors slurping down a 40 ouncer after work in their truck don’t count as experts.
Depends on what you like about a beach. I prefer rocks, kelp, tar. Redondo and Torrance are ok if you don’t want to scratch your nail polish and prefer DDT, mercury, sewage and gang bangers.
Who wears shoes on the beach is my question…
Henry’s usually has some tart especially after a strong current has pushed through the channel.
Some people say that the extra tar is due to increased seepage because they are not able to pump the wells due to the All-American pipeline failure. But there is also the fact that they have historically been injecting wastewater into the wells to pressurize them to increase extraction rates when they were pumping. So the extra tar may be a result of this. Don’t know if it is possible to get the data you need to answer this question conclusively.
Umm…there was an oil spill recently maybe that is where it has all settled?
No. The spill was 120gallons max about 10mi up the coast from there.
10,000 gallons seep naturally into the ocean off Goleta every day. Nothing to see here.
Not likely as the movement was along the fault line and not radiating concentrically. Thus minimal shaking here as opposed to the ’71 Sylmar at 6.5 which did cause an increase and the ’95 Northridge which caused an onshore seep around Ojai. With the fissure seen near the epicenter it appears there was not enough deep energy to cause a problem here.
As picturesque as SB is, it has THE worst beaches in Southern California due to the creek outfalls and constant natural tar seepage… Pismo/Avila are nice and clean, but Zuma, Redondo and Torrance are my fav SoCal beaches
OOPS. Yes. Procter and Gamble sure knows how to promote its dish soap. As if no other dish soap would remove oil from seabirds. Now that’s ridiculous.
It is Hendry’s beach, nick named for the family farming in the area many years ago.
Perhaps NPR, likely your trusted source, will convince you. Now shut up.

Ahahahaaha, guffaw,!chortle!
Thanks June 10 1:50 pm for the laugh. Great start to my Thursday.
A Benefit of bare feet, relieves stress, isn’t that why you’re at the beach in the first place?
Free foot massage/reflexology/somatic therapy. Step onto the sand, focus on the feeling of your foot sinking into the granules. Wiggle your toes & feet into the warm sand. Notice gravity pulling your being into the earth, its very grounding. Doesn’t it feel nice? I like to find a nice smooth rock about basketball size, warmed by the sun, with a bit of smooth ridge; press your feet against it and feel the warmth and the smoothness, move your foot around and press the heel, the ball, the toes, where are the sore spots? Let the stone massage those spots, noticing if you feel it in corresponding body parts.
What an interesting question! If you had a jar of water and oil that had settled to the bottom because of the sand, shaking it might loosen it up, but on the other hand, if individual grains of sand were coated, wouldn’t most settle down again when you stopped shaking the jar?
Ban oil. Ban tar on the beach. Ban it now.
Dawn has a very strong degreaser which is why it removes crude oil better than other detergents. But it is an additional chemical in the environment and you would never use something like that on your skin unless you were trying to remove crude oil which would kill you if you don’t get it off. Hopefully there are no long term effects on the animals.
