California's coast is facing a dire threat – this time from Sacramento ‼️

The Governor's Office insists on advancing a budget trailer bill proposal that would create a special carve-out from California's landmark Coastal Act – and the listed conditions apply to one very specific project. 👀

While the proposal itself is alarming, the precedent it would set is CATASTROPHIC.

Check out this video with Azul Founder and Executive Founder Marcela Gutiérrez-Graudiņš for more on this threat!

🔔TAKE ACTION: Call your California State Senator and Assemblymember and urge them to stop this boondoggle!

Azul was BUSY last week across California – showing up wherever decisions about our coast and communities were being made.

From Sacramento to Solana Beach, our team defended California’s coastal protections at NOAA’s public hearing, called for stronger protections for California’s MPA Network, spoke out against offshore fracking at the California Coastal Commission, and more!

AND we have a big win to celebrate: the California Coastal Commission voted UNANIMOUSLY to reject the proposal to bring fracking back to Platform Gilda off Ventura County.

These moments show what’s possible when advocates and communities continue to show up and speak out.

But the work is far from over.

Join the wave of and help us keep defending our coast.

¡California alzó la voz para defender nuestra costa, pero la lucha sigue en pie! 📢

El gobierno federal está tratando de aumentar la extracción de petróleo y la minería submarina a lo largo de la costa de California.

Por eso buscan deshacerse de las protecciones costeras del estado de California para poder vender nuestro océano al mejor postor. 💰❌

Después de la audiencia pública de NOAA, nuestra Fundadora y Directora Ejecutiva, Marcela Gutiérrez-Graudiņš, nos recuerda que entre todos podemos defenderlas.

⏰Tenemos hasta el 22 de agosto para enviar comentarios públicos a NOAA.

Las protecciones costeras de California funcionan. ¡Ahora nos toca defenderlas!

NOAA se encuentra evaluando el Programa de Gestión Costera de California. Este es el programa que le da a California su autonomía y, cuando es necesario, la autoridad de rechazar proyectos federales que pueden ser perjudiciales, como perforaciones en alta mar, oleoductos y otras actividades que amenacen la costa.

📣 Envía tu comentario público a NOAA antes del 22 de agosto a las 11:59 p.m. PT y cuéntales por qué las protecciones costeras de California son importantes para ti.

📸 La Fundadora y Directora Ejecutiva de Azul, Marcela Gutiérrez-Graudiņš, se unió a defensores de la costa para defender 50 años de protecciones costeras en California y dejar un mensaje claro: no cambiaremos nuestro futuro por sus ganancias.
