Friend,
During this unprecedented time, we understand that you have a lot on your
plate. However, with just ten years to enact real change, the urgency of
our climate crisis remains pertinent.
We are currently witnessing one of the largest extinction events in the
history of our planet, with 14% of birds, 25% of mammals and 40% of
amphibians already on the path to extinctions. California is a global
biodiversity hotspot, so we as a state have much more to lose. In order to
preserve California’s biodiversity, increase our resilience to the impacts
of climate change, and enhance access to nature for all people California
must pass AB 3030 which will commit us to statewide goal of protecting at
least 30% of land, waters, and oceans by 2030 (30 by 30).
AB 3030 is a science-backed goal that will not only safeguard
biodiversity, but will conserve natural spaces for future generations.
The scientific community across the world is calling on the global
leaders to commit to conserving more of Earth’s lands, waters, and oceans
in order to combat climate change, protect clean water, increase nature’s
abilities to buffer communities from climate change fueled natural
disasters, protect biodiversity, and protect our food system, all of which
have a direct impact on human health. As a global leader in climate
action, California must adopt this important conservation target.
Passing AB 3030 this year will set us on a path to conserving 30% of land
and 30% of oceans by 2030.

California’s natural spaces, protect biodiversity and ensure access to
nature for future generations!
We appreciate your role in the fight for our planet. We wouldn’t be able
to do this without you.
In solidarity,

We inspire hope and action and fight for equity and justice for all Californians. We are in the business of changing what’s possible.
