Jane Fonda and Kassie Siegel Reveal California's Dirty Secret

We're back for another Tuesday Teach-in with Jane Fonda, Fire Drill Fridays, and Greenpeace USA! In this episode Jane talks with environmental lawyer Kassie Siegel about California’s dirty secret: it's massive oil production. They discuss how the oil industry undercuts California’s progress on climate change and poisons the air we breathe and the water we drink — and what Gov. Gavin Newsom needs to do to stop the pollution.
