Dear {contact_data~positionHeld} {contact_data~lastName},

I am writing to you today regarding the Contra Costa County General Plan. Under no uncertain terms I am calling on the County Government to ban new oil and gas drilling and initiate an immediate phase out of existing production.

Oil and gas drilling poses dire health risks to Contra Costa County residents, with people near drilling sites facing higher risks of cancer, asthma, birth defects, and a host of other health concerns. Not only that, but the latest IPCC report declared a “code red for humanity” and called for an immediate end to new production as well as a phase out of existing production of fossil fuels.

What’s more, we’re well within our rights to take this action. Just last year Los Angeles County – the largest county in California – committed to phasing out 1,600 active and inactive wells and transitioning fossil fuel workers to climate-friendly and family-sustaining jobs.

Contra Costa County’s Climate Emergency Declaration explicitly calls for a transition away from a fossil fuel dependent economy and protection of vulnerable communities – the County’s General Plan directives must embody these principles.

I look forward to working with you to develop these critical goals.

Thank you,
{user_data~First Name} {user_data~Last Name}, {user_data~Zip or Postal Code}

I confirm I have reviewed this message and approve it
