EcoCAR Challenge is a wrap! 13 North American collegiate teams, 120 hours of dynamometer testing at #CARB’s new Riverside test lab & guidance from 40+ industry professionals. The future of #CleanTransportation is bright & #CARB is proud to support these #climate-minded students.

Like thousands of others, Juan & Sana lost their home in the #EatonFire. They opted in to the gov't debris removal program & their property was cleared of debris by the US Army Corps of Engineers. Have you submitted your Right of Entry form? The deadline to opt in/out is 3/31: recovery.lacounty.gov

Severe wildfires can leave behind barren landscapes with little chance of natural recovery. That’s why reforestation is more critical than ever. 🌱🌲 youtu.be/pmeGruneerM

I'm taking action to fast-track a solar and battery project in Fresno County. California is doing all we can to cut pollution, create good jobs, and build a cleaner, more reliable energy grid.

Californians will receive an average of $137 on their April utility bill thanks to the state’s Cap-and-Trade Program. Learn more about the credit here: ➡️ www.gov.ca.gov/2025/03/18/m...

Whether you’re opting-in to the government run debris removal program or opting to hire your own private contractor to remove it, you must submit a form to notify the County by March 31, 2025.

California is proof that tackling climate change does not have to come at the expense of growing our economy. We are continuing to lead in clean energy while creating jobs, driving innovation, and attracting investment for a sustainable future.

Even in winter, CAL FIRE has been hard at work reducing wildfire risk and protecting our environment! These fuel reduction efforts help prevent extreme wildfires, protect wildlife, improve air quality, and make California more fire-resilient. #fuelreduction #foresthealth

Mudslides can catch motorists off guard, turning a routine drive into a dangerous situation. Recent rains left roads unstable, and CAL FIRE RRU crews were called in to rescue stranded drivers stuck in the mud. 🚗💨 🌧️ Stay safe and be prepared! #CALFIRE #MudslideSafety #DriveSafe

Rain is returning to areas across the state this week and storm events are expected to cause local flooding in some areas. Sadly, multiple people die each winter by walking or driving into unsafe waters. Most flood-related deaths can be prevented. TURN AROUND, DON’T DROWN!

We have hundreds of personnel on the ground across the state ready to help communities prepare for this week’s storm. In Altadena and the Palisades, we’re continuing our months-long efforts to protect against potential debris flows.

Developing the next generation of #climateaction scientists from community partners Riverside Unified School District and Alvord Unified with an EcoCAR Challenge STEM activity using #CARB’s new test lab.

Burning accumulated vegetation is an effective and affordable way to reduce wildfire risk and create defensible space around your home. But if not done properly, it can quickly become a wildfire that threatens your community. #BurnSafety Does and Don'ts ⬇️

The Altadena One-Stop Permit Center has relocated to 464 W. Woodbury Road Suite #210 in Altadena. Property owners can stop by to get help with navigating the rebuilding process, including permitting, planning & other recovery-related services. More info: recovery.lacounty.gov/rebuilding (1/2)

Burn scars from past wildfires may leave the land vulnerable. Without vegetation to stabilize the soil, heavy rains can lead to dangerous debris flows and flooding. CAL FIRE is supporting CAL OES to reduce these risks in recent fire-damaged areas of Los Angeles County. youtu.be/Jg2vpJpmYA0

Heavy rains in Southern California have triggered evacuation orders and warnings within the areas impacted by 2024 and recent January wildfires. Storm advice from Battalion Chief Brent Pasqua. youtube.com/shorts/EHRKZ...

With additional rains impacting Northern California today, it’s a good time to remind Californians to avoid flooded roadways and exercise caution if you must drive during heavy rains or in snowy conditions. #StaySafe #CAWx

L.A. County water systems are in recovery after the wildfires — assessing damage, making repairs, testing for contamination, and updating public notices — with support from the State Water Board. @cagovernornewsom.bsky.social

S&T Week 2025 is off to an exciting start, with a panel moderated by Pramod Khargonekar and featuring CNRA Secretary @wadecrowfoot.bsky.social, @airresources.bsky.social Chair Liane Randolph, Ilkay Altintas (@ucsandiego.bsky.social), and Arianne Teherani (@ucsanfrancisco.bsky.social.

Thanks to the swift mobilization of federal resources, the U.S. EPA is leading the largest wildfire hazardous material removal effort ever in response to the LA firestorms. California values our partnership with the federal government in fast-tracking recovery. Thank you, Administrator Lee Zeldin.

At this morning's press conference, Col. Eric Swenson of the US Army Corps of Engineers explained the debris removal timeline for areas impacted by the Palisades & Eaton fires. To learn about your debris removal options, visit recovery.lacounty.gov/debris-removal.

Recovering from the Los Angeles firestorms isn't just about LA emerging as one of the top cities in the world. It's about coming back as the most important and essential city, anywhere in the world.

Firefighters are containing and mopping up the wildfires that have impacted Southern California. Here is a summary of the Southern California fires. #Border2Fire #Hughesfire #PalisadesFire #EatonFire #LAFires youtube.com/shorts/fsP1v...
