San Francisco, October 8 (RHC)-- In the U.S. state of California, the Donald Trump administration has moved to open more than 720,000 acres of California land to oil and gas drilling.

Environmentalists have vowed to sue to block what would be the first federal fossil fuel lease sales since 2013.  Clare Lakewood, senior attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity, said: “Turning over these spectacular wild places to dirty drilling and fracking will sicken Californians, harm endangered species, and fuel climate chaos.”
