'I refuse to sit idly by, watching these drilling sites pollute my community, undermine our health, and further accelerate our world into a climate crisis.'—youth organizer Alexi Lindeman
to a mass protest organized by high school students. CalGEM, the California Geologic Energy Management agency, has approved a Class II injection well across from the active oil drilling site in unincorporated Antioch, a half mile from Dozier-Libbey High School, the Kaiser Antioch Medical Center, and pending senior housing.
The first resistance to hit the streets against these plans for new oil and gas drilling in the Bay Area’s Contra Costa County took place on Saturday, March 12th. 300 people marched along busy 6-lane Lone Tree Way amidst green hills covered in bright yellow flowering mustard. The marchers then rallied at the Antioch Community Center across from Antioch High School.
