Today on @WorldOceansDay , I share why I support @AzulDotOrg as part of my 1% for the Planet commitment. 🌎 🐋 Based in California, Azul is an environmental justice organization founded in 2011 to elevate LatinX participation in ocean conservation. It’s the only U.S. group focusing specifically on engaging LatinX communities in protecting coastal resources and fighting for environmental equity. Through ocean policy and campaigns, Azul advocates for marine protections, combating offshore drilling, and reducing plastic pollution. 🌊🐬 I am proud to support a great cause that reflects my LatinX culture and passion for environmental justice. 🇲🇽 ❤️ #VoiceOverForThePlanet #1PercentForThePlanet #WorldOceanDay #OceanConservation

Despite the state’s legal commitment to protect 30% of our coastal waters by 2030 – and overwhelming support for such action – CDFW’s recommendations deny almost every proposed conservation measure and protect less than 0.1% more of California’s coastal waters.
