This morning, I held a virtual press conference with leading scientists and advocates to highlight the risks threatening our coastal communities. Restoration experts across the state are ready with solutions to safeguard our coast from sea-level rise. We must ensure that coastal habitat restoration is a top priority for California, and we can do that by removing bureaucratic Green Tape that\u2019s only slowing down innovative solutions. Check out the recording\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s celebrate Earth Month as a community. Together we can combat climate change and make choices that lead to a healthier planet.<\/p>\n
