Celebrate!

On July 19, the Oakland City Council cast its second and final vote to ban coal. The No Coal Ordinance is now law!  Oakland is on record!  No one can store or handle large quantities of coal anywhere in Oakland, including at the former Oakland Army Base.

It took 15 months of hard work by all of us to achieve this victory for the residents of Oakland, the Bay Area, and the planet.  No Coal in Oakland invites you to join us in celebration on July 30 at the new West Oakland Farm Park.  There will be food, music, dancing and Open Mic where you can share with us highlights of the campaign for you.

This is a community potluck.  Please bring hors d’oevres, snacks, desserts, or non-alcoholic drinks to share.
