HELP PROTECT CALIFORNIA BIODIVERSITY

⚠ Only individuals with a valid California address can participate in this action

The abundance and diversity of life found in the waters off Southern California is truly extraordinary. But the marine life here all share a common threat: the risk of becoming entangled in set gillnets. Call on the California legislature to protect this unique ecosystem and support California’s transition away from high-bycatch gillnet fishing.
