Bilingual report — State Sen. Monique Limón to Join Community Environmental Council Partners on March 22 to Discuss Innovative Wildfire Mitigation

Last month, Senator Monique Limón (California Senate District 19) introduced Senate Bill 675 to enhance wildfire mitigation efforts by expanding support of statewide prescribed grazing. On Wednesday, March 22, she will join the Community Environmental Council (CEC) and its partners for a community webinar that will dig deeper into this new legislation and how prescribed grazing can help Central Coast communities build climate resilience.

The free webinar, offered in English and Spanish, runs from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Pacific. Hosted by CEC’s Climate-Smart Agriculture Program Manager, Molly Taylor, presenters include representatives from Cuyama Lamb, Channel Islands Restoration, and the California Climate & Agriculture Network (CalCAN), who will discuss the importance of prescribed grazing as an ecological and fire resilience tool – and how SB 675 will ensure that prescribed grazing is better integrated into existing statewide wildfire resilience programs and strategies.
