Defenders of Wildlife has just released news that more than 175 scientists and researchers who live or work in California support passage of Assembly Bill (AB) 3030. Introduced by Assemblymember Ash Kalra (D-San Jose), AB 3030 would establish a state policy to protect 30% of the state’s lands and waters and help to advance protection of 30% of the nation’s oceans by 2030. Friends of Harbors, Beaches and Parks is a supporter of this legislation. It has been referred to the Appropriations Committee in the State Assembly next.
