What: Rally against offshore drilling off the California coast with powerful speakers, music, and lots of art and chanting.When: 10:45 am, Thursday February 8thWhere: Oakland (MacArthur BART Station)
Offshore drilling is a nightmare for people and the planet – it poisons our oceans, covers our beaches in oil, and directly threatens California’s booming coastal economy. It also deepens our dependence on fossil fuels, driving climate change that accelerates sea level rise and fuels wildfires. But the fight to protect the California coast from new offshore drilling isn’t over yet. Let’s show Trump and his oil cronies what resistance to their unending quest to wreck the planet looks like.
