Tar Sands are a bad idea. We can make sure that the Bay Area is not part of this problem. and ensure that area refineries don't process any materials from tar sands mining operations. Help us convince the cities of Richmond and Martinez to prohibit the dirty, destructive and climate-disruptive tar sands within their city limits.
Petition
We request that the city councils of Richmond, Hercules, Benicia and Martinez pass city ordinances to prohibit the transport, processing and refining within city limits of any materials obtained or derived from tar sands of any source. We request that all other city councils in the Bay Area pass resolutions in support of these ordinances.

As a CA resident I do not want the additional pollution inevitable as a by-product of Tar Sands oil refining to contaminate this state. I want to be able to say proudly CA residents are wise and prudent and we don’t allow tar sands refining here.

Tar sands is a very bad idea. We must keep the oil corporations from devastating our lands, our environment, our pocket books. We must fight back with courage and determination.
