Lost Causes

Sadly, some legislators in Sacramento will never see the light on environmental justice.

Whether because they lack the courage to stand up to the fossil fuel industry, they don’t see public health in frontline communities as the crisis that it is, or simply because they hail from a district that is so conservative any opposition to oil and gas is a non-starter, these legislators are not realistic targets for advocacy. It doesn’t mean we’re any less disappointed by their votes, but merely that efforts to persuade elected officials to embrace environmental justice and a Just Transition to a fossil fuel-free economy are better spent elsewhere.
