Putting Nature to Work Series: Prescribed Grazing for Ecological and Wildfire Resilience
Acompáñanos en este seminario web para aprender de una nueva propuesta de ley que fue presentada recientemente por la senadora Monique Limón, la cual mejorará la mitigación de los incendios forestales al expandir el pastoreo planificado a nivel estatal.
Creating a Shock-Proof Local Food System
Over the last few months, we’ve witnessed in real time how shocks to the globalized food system impact one of the most basic human rights: the right to healthy, accessible food. Entangled in the global COVID-19 pandemic and climate-related disasters are layers of wealth, race, privilege and language that affect the ability of Central Coast communities to survive and thrive.
In this webinar, we explored how CEC’s Food Rescue program and other local efforts are working to support those most vulnerable to hunger – particularly students, unsheltered populations, farm workers and seniors. We also discussed the work of the Santa Barbara County Food Action Network to equitably stitch together the torn fabrics of our food system – from local farmers and fishermen, to local restaurants and distributors.
