You would think... First time I went there I had a version of the Paris Syndrome[1]. I was expecting beautiful, clean, and preserved nature and what I saw was oil refineries on the ocean (chevron in el segundo) water so filled with bacteria after it rains you will get hepatitis if you go in it, extreme vehicle pollution, oil drilling in the city [2]!Granted I still like it there, but the illusion of California being an eco-friendly place was completely shot.
