Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Conservation projects across the state, as well as state and local parks, are in need of funding. In light of this need, Proposition 68 in Tuesday’s June primary elections in California is seeking to bolster projects that tackle water and natural resource conservation, improve park access and increase resilience to climate change. If passed, $4 billion in bonds will be allocated statewide for improvement of parks, projects on environmental protection and restoration, water infrastructure and flood protection. The discussion of whether to pass Prop 68 is however more of a question of whether to allocate the bonds now in anticipation of climate change or to use other sources of funding available now or in the future.
