We are a grassroots coalition that advocates for plans and policies that preserve and enhance our natural surroundings while building a healthy, just, resilient, minimal waste, regenerative, fossil fuel-free community that will thrive and prosper for generations into the future. 

We desire to effectively mitigate the myriad, interconnected consequences of Climate Breakdown and Biodiversity Loss. We want to reverse Global Warming and do our part to stabilize our shared climate. We are lovers of hiking, cycling, gardening, and the planting of native habitat for birds and pollinating insects. We honor indigenous people and their knowledge. We are supporters of Conejo Valley Audubon, the Conejo Botanic Garden, Sierra Club, The Nature Conservancy and other organizations dedicated to conserving and protecting wildlife.  We are also supporters of  Poison-Free Conejo Valley, the Organic Garden Club of Ventura County, Fridays for Future and the Ventura County Youth Coalition. We are uniting with environmental organizations in defense of a county health and safety ordinance requiring environmental review of new oil well permits - a needed model ordinance that the oil industry is trying to overturn by ballot referendum. 

Our co-founders have experience working with one or more of the following organizations: Chalice Climate Action Team (CCAT), Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL), 350 Ventura County Climate Hub, the Conejo Oak Tree Advocates (COTA), and Climate First: Replacing Oil and Gas (CFROG).  Our focus for 2021 through 2022 is to help the City of Thousand Oaks with its 2045 General Plan Update (GPU) and Climate and Environmental Action Plan (CEAP). By offering our knowledge, skills, resources and passion to educate and engage everyone in our community in the development of these constitutional documents that will define the features and character of our city, it is our goal to ensure adequate housing, food and energy security and resilience for decades to come. We advocate for distributed community hubs where residents can work, shop and enjoy nature close to home and be supported in the transition away from polluting fossil fuels toward local, renewable and resilient energy generation and storage.
