The @LATimes Editorial Board calls for an end to California offshore drilling to #ProtectThePacific: “State lawmakers should begin reducing the risks to the coastal environment and the climate by ending drilling in California waters.” https://t.co/5OBuwHHNZq

"We must fully and highly protect at least 30% of our ocean. Let’s start there and shift the “access” conversation to where the opportunity really lies — efforts to connect marginalized communities to nature." - @anupaasokan #americathebeautiful #30x30 https://t.co/8UtzIkZNyG

Statement from California Coastal Commission Chair Steve Padilla on the #HuntingtonBeachOilSpill

[Los Angeles Times @latimes]

California’s distaste for offshore drilling dates back to 1969, when a devastating oil spill off the coast of Santa Barbara shocked the public and galvanized the modern environmental movement.

"Huntington Beach shore is covered in oil. This is why the U.S. needs to end coastal drilling." @latimesopinion is 💯🎯https://t.co/OvWZVckine

Poseidon is fighting a permit condition that would link start-up of the Huntington Beach desalter to shovel-ready environmental mitigation projects. https://t.co/N6LVuguaF7

Poseidon wants to build a $1.4B #desalination plant in Huntington Beach. If built, it will kill marine life & pollute our ocean, spew harmful emissions, & increase ratepayer bills. Tell the Water Board #NoPoseidon: https://t.co/MaxPCrLQDy #FueraPoseidon @AzulDotOrg @RWQCB8

Do you ever think about how many amazing things the ocean does for humanity even as we exploit it and fill it with trash and think "Girl, this is a toxic relationship! Dump them! You deserve so much better!"

Yeah, me too

We are already 1 year into the decisive decade for #climateaction. Achieving decarbonization depends on considering all "tools in the toolbox." We partnered with @ClimateWorks to explore the growing portfolio of ocean-based CO2 removal approaches.

How can @JoeBiden + @KamalaHarris make real progress in reducing emissions? A new report from @OurSharedSeas finds the ocean holds the answer. #climateaction means #oceanaction https://t.co/ysG3Qx2oLq
