Supreme Court Won’t Hear Industry Challenge to California Offshore Fracking Ban

Lower courts ruled that fracking for oil and gas in the Pacific Ocean could pose a threat to marine life.

On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the fossil fuel industry’s challenge to a 2018 court-ordered moratorium on offshore fracking in federal Pacific Ocean waters off the coast of California, a rare victory for environmental groups and coastal conservationists who say producing oil and gas from under the seafloor poses a serious threat to ocean ecosystems and the climate.
