California’s Central Coast is already feeling the impacts of climate change–more extreme heat, harmful algal blooms, and the loss of important ecosystems like kelp forests. As temperatures keep rising and dangerous storms damage California’s piers, action is urgently needed to protect our communities and the natural ecosystems we depend on.
A critical step in this fight is moving away from fossil fuels, which cause climate change and pollute our air. Responsible offshore wind (OSW) energy provides clean, reliable power that can help us build a healthier, safer, and more sustainable future.
