The Santa Barbara Surfrider Foundation’s Fight to Preserve the Coast
According to Guests Mark Morey and Ken Palley, "...we all have to pitch in, roll up our sleeves, and keep working and keep working and keep working."
On this episode of The Indy, we speak with Mark Morey, the Surfrider Foundation Santa Barbara Chapter Chair, and Ken Palley, longtime activist, executive committee member, and former chair about the foundation’s mission and history of their environmental work along the Gaviota Coast. They share more about their battles with developers over land, community outreach projects, and the importance of upholding environmental legislation that protects preservations.
