The devastating October 2021 oil spill in Huntington beach, California, as well as the countless ongoing spills in the Gulf of Mexico and around the world are completely preventable. The answer is simple – stop drilling new wells and building new fossil fuels infrastructure.
We, the undersigned, call on President Joe Biden and California Governor Gavin Newsom to immediately stop issuing new permits for any and all forms of oil and gas wells, pipelines, and refineries.
