Governor Newsom:
As concerned parents, grandparents, and others who love children, we urge you to do everything in your power to address the public health and climate emergency in our state. When your house is on fire, it’s time to Stop, Drop and Roll:
1. STOP new fossil fuel projects: Lead by issuing no new permits for oil & gas extraction, fossil fuel infrastructure, or petrochemical projects in California. Keep it in the ground!
2. DROP existing production: Announce a phase-out of existing production in line with the Paris climate goals and a just & equitable transition that protects workers & communities.
3. ROLL Out science-based setbacks: Create a 2500-foot health and safety buffer zone between fossil-fuel infrastructure and homes, schools, & other sensitive sites.
Please show bold climate leadership by ensuring that “California for All” means a safe and healthy California for all.
Thank you!
