More and more we are experiencing catastrophic unnatural disasters, many worsened by carbon pollution from fossil fuels. The oil and gas industry has known for decades that it was creating the conditions for heat, drought, floods, and fires but has lied to the public and concealed their data so they could continue to rake in immense profits while we paid the price, many with our lives. As a constituent I strongly urge you to support AB 1243 (Addis) and SB 684 (Menjivar), the California Polluters Pay Climate Superfund Act to require fossil fuel companies to pay their fair share of recovery costs from climate damages they helped cause. Vermont and New York have already passed climate superfund laws. Let’s make it happen in California and pass the California Polluters Pay Climate Superfund Act!
