Enormously proud of environmental shero, justice warrior + fierce leader, @goldmanprize winner Andrea Vidaurre. Andrea’s vision, fortitude + dedication has helped push California's transition to #zeroemissions forward, delivering relief for communities most impacted by pollution.
Huge news for California drivers – the Tesla supercharging network is opening to non-Tesla vehicles! This adds thousands of fast chargers to California's EV charging network, bringing us to more than 105,000 public EV chargers – including 10,000 fast chargers – and counting.
Andrea Vidaurre's leadership resulted in the adoption of California's most ambitious emissions regulations in history—accelerating the transition to zero-emission vehicles & protecting her Inland Empire community. @PC4EJ #GoldmanPrize 🌎🏆 👉 Learn more: bit.ly/3JZhk4R
California—and the planet—have a plastic pollution problem. Less than 9% of the plastic we throw away ends up recycled, which is why California is working to make our plastic recycling laws—the strongest in the country—even more effective by holding manufacturers accountable.
Such a treat to join @LondonBreed and San Francisco students at the Youth Climate Action Summit yesterday. Young people are driving climate action and are an inspiring reminder that we are all responsible for safeguarding our future.
It was an honor to host shero + icon @DoloresHuerta for a screening of DOLORES + policy discussion. The fight for environmental, racial, gender and labor justice are inextricably intertwined. Inspired by the discussion on how earlier movements inform + activate our work today.
Today, @EPAregion9 and CalEPA released a plan for joint enforcement work to protect CA communities overburdened by pollution. The 2024/25 Action Plan builds on the groundbreaking federal-state partnership that was launched in 2021. Learn more: calepa.ca.gov/2024/04/24/pre…
Lots to see and do at @CaliforniaEPA + @CalNatResources's #EarthDay celebration where our boards and departments turned out to showcase their work and provide kids + their families with some hands on experience on how to protect our environment and our communities.
On Earth Day, we joined First Partner @JenSiebelNewsom for a dedication at California’s first new state park in a decade! 🎉 Dos Rios is home to threatened and endangered wildlife that will be protected for generations to come, all while we fight the climate crisis.
Environmental justice comes from equitable decision making and prioritizing investments + reductions in pollution burdens in communities that have been traditionally left behind. @CaliforniaEPA uses tools like CalEnviroScreen to center environmental justice in all our work.

The rise in plastics production is exacerbating the global plastics pollution crisis and driving up global emissions. Bottom line: We can’t solve the climate crisis without slashing the production of plastics. #EarthDay2024 #CAEarthDayChat2024 #PlanetVsPlastics

California is using millions of acres of land to absorb more carbon and fight the climate crisis. With 81 new targets, we’re using these nature-based solutions to reach our world-leading climate goals, including reaching carbon neutrality by 2045. gov.ca.gov/2024/04/22/wit…
NEXT WEEK: Join us April 22, #EarthDay, as we co-host a family-friendly celebration at @CalNatResources! 🎉 Enjoy fun, interactive activities from @AirResources, @CalRecycle, @CA_PesticideReg, @OEHHA, @CaWaterBoards + many more ➡ calepa.ca.gov/calepa-earth-d…
Exciting news! @EPA established first-of-its-kind standards to get toxic forever chemicals out of our taps. This is a critical step in our collective efforts to protect public health + reduce pervasive PFAS chemicals in our drinking water + waste streams. nytimes.com/2024/04/10/cli…

Great to see '24 @CCSTFellows Nicholas Santiago, PhD, tapping into his #SciComm skills with @CalEPASecretary and @OEHHA to share important lessons for #EarthDay2024.
Lots to see and do at @CaliforniaEPA + @CalNatResources's #EarthDay celebration where our boards and departments turned out to showcase their work and provide kids + their families with some hands on experience on how to protect our environment and our communities.
No parent should have to worry if the water their kids are drinking is safe. Water is fundamental to healthy people and thriving communities, and @EPA’s new standards for PFAS will prevent thousands of deaths and tens of thousands of illnesses from these forever chemicals.
In the face of the climate crisis, California is continuing to take action to protect our water supplies when it’s dry & capture more water during wet seasons. This updated water plan will guide how we manage water, mitigate the impacts of climate change, & protect communities.
Wonderful to welcome to HK the State of California Delegation, including @ToksOmishakin @CalEPASecretary and @CalChinaClimate, to participate in the Hong Kong Climate Forum between cities in China & California leaders on environment. Closer cooperation on climate will be critical…
NEWLY FUNDED: 5 water storage projects in California to supply over 100,000 households with water for a year! Thanks to @usbr, these projects will help us store water, recharge groundwater, maximize irrigation efficiency, and more.

Nǐ hǎo again from China 🇨🇳 where today Secretary @ToksOmishakin & @CalEPASecretary continued CA’s important partnership with Hainan province. Our climate-focused dialogue covered ZEVs & other strategies to cut transportation pollution, building on the MOU signed last August.
Under @POTUS, America is driving toward a clean car future. The reality is that zero-emission vehicle sales reached their highest point ever last year—and California won’t stop until 100% of new car sales are zero-emission.
Today, Deputy Executive Officer Sydney Vergis joined @EPA as they announced new emissions standards for light- & medium-duty vehicles that sets the US on a path to a clean transportation future.
EPA’s final car standards are a win for the environmental and public health! They will slash greenhouse gas and other harmful air pollution #emissions from passenger cars and trucks. epa.gov/newsreleases/b…
