Background & approach: “We must also consider urban development, wetlands, and ground water recharge, not just in Sacramento, but in our whole watershed - from the Sierra to the Bay.”
Campaign priorities: “We can mitigate climate change by changing work trucks and tools to electric alternatives and we can support carbon capture by preserving trees and creating space for native plants- whose deep roots keep carbon deep in soil and deter erosion on our river banks.”
