CEC’S ENVIRONMENTAL HERO AWARDS 2023
Honoring powerful climate action through daily personal action and political advocacy
When: Sunday, April 30 at 2:00 p.m. Where: Main Stage
The Community Environmental Council (CEC) and its community partners are working to address climate threats and inequities by actively collaborating with underrepresented voices in planning and implementing community-led solutions. This year, we are thrilled to honor two regional climate justice activists dedicated to protecting their communities from the negative impacts of oil and gas drilling, and who are leading the way to a more resilient future.
Nalleli Cobo
Grassroots Activist, South Central Youth Leadership Coalition Co-Founder
Nalleli Cobo led a coalition to permanently shut down a toxic oil-drilling site in her community in March 2020, at the age of 19—an oil site that caused serious health issues for her and others. Her efforts to ban urban oil extraction have influenced a major policy movement within both the Los Angeles City Council and Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, which voted unanimously to ban new oil exploration and phase out of existing sites.
Cesar Aguirre
Oil and Gas Director for the Central California Environmental Justice Network (CCEJN)
Cesar Aguirre works in rural communities in Kern County, helping fenceline communities affected by oil and gas and pesticides protect themselves from pollution and advocate for systemic changes that prioritize their health. Cesar has participated in multiple projects (i.e. Arvin Air Quality; I.M.P.R.O.V.E) where he has raised awareness among residents on how fracking and other activities related to the oil and gas industry are negatively impacting their neighborhoods.
Awards presented by:
Florencia Ramirez, author of the book Eat Less Water and recipient of CEC’s 2018 Environmental Hero Award. Florencia is a researcher at the University of Chicago’s Harris School of Public Policy, kitchen activist, educator, and mother.
