Excess Pollution created by Breakwater
We
support reconfiguring
the Long Beach breakwater, to allow natural surf to restore our
shore, bring waves and tourism back to Long Beach and allow natural tidal
cycles to rebalance our sand depletion. We can do all this while
still while retaining the breakwater in
some fashion in order to protect homes from surges. |
Excess Pollution Created by Port/Goods Movement
We
know that the Port of Long Beach is a large economic engine, however the
two ports are the two largest stationary sources of air pollution in
California. The port is expected to grow significantly over the next
decade with dire implications for traffic, air pollution, and a host of
negative economic and environmental impacts. The Port of Long
Beach must reduce these impacts continuously until they are reduced
to acceptable levels. Click on the image above for more information
