Agreed!
"The voluntary agreements are an extinction plan," as our lead scientist @jarosenfield.bsky.social describes the state's new Bay Delta Plan.
Endangered species will continue to plummet, more fisheries will shutter, and Tribes & Delta communities will continue to suffer with worse water quality.
True, True

Environmental advocates say the proposal would take too much water out of the Delta, threatening fish from the finger-sized smelt to the giant white sturgeon.

Image of Ocean Beach in San Francisco with text: "Tell State Officials: Stop Selling the Bay’s Sand for Concrete. One of the biggest threats to California’s coast and shorelines happens out of sight along the Bay’s floor, where private companies have been mining sand for over a century. The companies then sell the sand for profit—mostly to be turned into concrete and asphalt. Continued unsustainable sand mining will harm native wildlife and lead to greater vulnerability to sea level rise."
