  10. "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."

  17. As far back as 1975 corporate insiders were aware of potential risks. They called #paraquat’s long-term effects "a quite terrible problem” (Nov 11, 1975 ltr to #Chevron Environmental Health, Standard Oil of California).
    Over 70 countries banned paraquat; it remains legal in US. #EnvironmentalProtectionAgency banned use on #golf courses but allows on crops.
    Most US paraquat comes from China & UK—both banned paraquat’s use in their countries.

    Hard to know full scope of paraquat use across US; California is only state where info on location & amt of use is readily available.— ewg.org/research/wonderful-com
    In 2023 it was 46th most used pesticide in CA, 369,978 pounds applied.— cdpr.ca.gov/2024/12/30/departm
