  7. "Local leaders from #Monterey County met to discuss economic & #environmental impacts posed by [POTUS 47] administration’s leasing proposal for #OffshoreOilDrilling. The proposal includes 34 lease sales across 21 areas, with six off #California coast. Two of these are for #CentralCoast, and could begin as early as 2027.

    "'As we've seen from this administration, a lot of their talk is aspirational to a certain extent, but also very real & #dangerous if they go forward with it.'—Congressional Rep Jimmy Panetta

    “Meeting was in response to 2nd public comment period opened by Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) to solicit industry-focused input, specifically for #SouthernCalifornia & #CentralCalifornia. Open to all, it seeks input from tech experts & organizations that have industry knowledge about #energy, #fishing, #hospitality & #tourism, #PublicHealth & more.

    “…closes Feb. 26."

  19. Part of being an immigrant is looking at Chinese restaurant menus and guessing (often correctly) what type of regional Chinese food they serve. They tend to have a ‘Chinese food for everyone else’ menu and then often a handful of stuff that is maybe their true heart’s desire.. at a very poorly rated Chinese restaurant in Marina, CA, that upon further investigation looks like it does excellent Korean Chinese.

    The presence of ‘jjampong’ and ‘jjajjangmyeon’ (and lots of Korean speaking people) gives it away. Also they proudly state house made noodles. So yay

  20. The U.S. gets a new national #MarineSanctuary, the first led by a tribe

    By Lauren Sommer
    Published October 14, 2024

    "More than 4,500 square miles of ocean will soon be protected by the federal government off the #CentralCalifornia coast. The #Biden administration is creating a new national marine sanctuary, which will be the third largest in the U.S.

    "The sanctuary is also the first to be led by #IndigenousPeople. It was nominated by members of the #NorthernChumashTribe, who drove the effort for more than decade to protect the rugged #coastline that is their historical homeland.

    "Going forward, the new #ChumashHeritage National Marine Sanctuary will be managed in partnership with tribes and I#ndigenous groups in the area, who will advise the federal government. It marks a growing movement under the Biden administration to give tribes a say over the lands and waters that were taken from them.

    "'We’re still here, and so are the Indigenous people wherever you live,' says #VioletSageWalker, chairwoman of the Northern Chumash Tribal Council, who led the campaign for the sanctuary. 'Being able to address #ClimateChange, use traditional #ecological knowledge, and participate in #comanagement is Indigenous peoples’ contribution to saving the planet.'

    "The final sanctuary boundaries are smaller than originally proposed due to California’s burgeoning #OffshoreWind industry. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says it plans to look at expanding the sanctuary in the future.

    "National marine sanctuaries are similar to a national forest on land. The new sanctuary will be protected from oil and gas #drilling, as well as #UnderseaMining, while #fishing is still permitted. It also means more public outreach and monitoring for environmental impacts, something NOAA says is vital to understanding how the ecosystem is being affected by climate change."

  25. Troubled Waters

    This natural rock arch frames a view of the ocean with a sea stack in the background. Located on California's Central Coast is Shark Fin Cove. The waves crash against the rocky shore while the mist creates an ethereal atmosphere.
    It's a foggy day and the sea disappears in the mist beyond.
