RSVP to Big Oil Resistance Tour: KERN COUNTY

Start: Sunday, May 07, 2023 3:00 PM

End: Sunday, May 07, 2023 5:00 PM

Big Oil bullies are ripping off Californians, polluting our air and water, poisoning our communities, and setting us on a path toward climate destruction. Oil and gas companies just spent over $20 million to put a lifesaving environmental justice law on hold, the latest in a series of threats to communities in Kern County.

It’s time for the Big Oil Resistance to fight back. Get your free ticket today!

Las grandes petroleras siguen aprovechándose de los Californianos, contaminando nuestra agua y aire, y además gastaron más de $20 millones para revertir una ley que salvará vidas al prevenir contaminación tóxica en Kern county.

Es hora de oponerse, únete a la Resistencia al Gran Petróleo

We need Governor Newsom to truly move California beyond fossil fuels once and for all - by ending neighborhood drilling and halting all new fossil fuel permits. To get the Governor to act, we need to build our movement's power.

Necesitamos que el Gobernador Newsom termine yá los permisos para perforar pozos petroleros en nuestros barrios y que empecemos la transición para terminar con los combustibles fósiles. Necesitamos crecer y demostrar el poder de nuestro movimiento.
