Environmental Defense Center
The Environmental Defense Center (EDC) is a non-profit organization based in Santa Barbara, CA, dedicated to protecting and enhancing the environment of California's south central coast. Through education, advocacy, and legal action, EDC works to address emerging environmental threats and promote a healthier future. They have been instrumental in achieving victories such as the denial of the oil industry's challenge to the ban on offshore fracking off the California coast and the proposed designation of the Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary. EDC also fights against dangerous oil production and works to minimize the impacts of offshore wind projects on the coastal and marine environment.Generated from the website
