Some GREAT news! Environmental Defense Center Santa Barbara, CA The withdrawal of the Terracore oil and gas project (formerly known as ERG and now Cat Canyon Resources) is the final nail in the coffin for what could have been a massive expansion of risky oil and gas operations in Santa Barbara County. For years now, oil operators in the Cat Canyon Oil Field have been actively pursuing three steam injection projects to drill around 760 new wells in the Field, add over 400 tanker truck trips to local roadways and highways, and contribute nearly 700,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalent per yearwreaking havoc on our communities’ air and climate. Earlier this year, Aera Energy, LLC and PetroRock withdrew their applications for more oil drilling in Cat Canyon.
As we step into this pivotal week, it's important to acknowledge the feelings of consternation and uncertainty that many of us have been feeling heading into tomorrow. If you are feeling anxious, please know that you are not alone.

Thanks to the Santa Barbara Independent's Gail Arnold for this wonderful coverage of Bread & Roses! "The Fund for Santa Barbara’s virtual Bread and Roses fundraiser on October 10 was as inspiring, entertaining, and informative as ever, with Co-Chairs Gary Clark and Wendy Sims-Moten setting a lively tone. A multitude of speakers shared their passion for the Fund, a nonprofit that supports social, political, economic, and environmental justice movements. Ticket holders and sponsors numbered 425, many more watched live for free, and hundreds more have watched the video. More than $150,000 was raised." Read the whole article:
