Description: Transcription: Announcer The ocean. 0:01 (waves crash) It has been America's line of defense, 0:02 a supplier of food and the highway to the rest of the world. 0:04 Today, it is our biggest hope for new oil supplies. 0:08 According to one estimate, 0:11 there is more oil undiscovered off our shores, 0:12 than we've used in America in the past 100 years, 0:15 lots of natural gas too, possibly twice as much 0:18 as we've ever used. 0:21 In all off-shore drilling, 0:22 we must be vitally concerned about the ecology of the sea. 0:24 Fortunately, there are sophisticated methods today 0:27 that enable us to protect the sea's environment 0:30 better than ever before. 0:32 With our increased needs for a secure domestic supply 0:34 of oil, it's not surprising 0:37 that a recent national survey reported 0:38 that three out of four Americans favor off-shore drilling. 0:40 The US government has announced its intention 0:44 to offer additional off-shore acreage for leasing in 1975. 0:46 Texaco firmly supports this stepped-up leasing program. 0:51 The longer we wait, the longer we'll be dependent 0:54 on foreign oil. 0:57
