Surfrider Beach Protest in Malibu
Surfrider supporters along with Hollywood gliterrati were out in force on Sunday, October 22nd protesting the proposals for building a liquified natural gas facility just 14 miles off of the California coastline. Other proposed areas include Long Beach and Port Hueneme. Paddling enthusiast and former James Bond actor Pierce Brosan, the protest host, was quoted as saying,"I would certainly put our best efforts into that as well,... I think this is for the whole California coastline."
Protestors include Cindy Crawford, Tea Leoni, Daryl Hannah, Jane Seymour, Dick Van Dyke and Ted Danson. Halle Berry, an Oscar winner said,"We have to use our voices and band together and stop this."
The terminal proposal will be decided next year in 2007. Company officials from Australian-based BHP Billiton say the proposal will provide a reliable source of low-polluting energy. Opponents claim that the facilities fail to address clean-air requirements and also may be a target for terrorists.
After a pancake breakfast, the protestors along with dozens of surfers paddled out to a protest sign which read, "Terminate It!"; a two-word message intended for Govenor Arnold Schwarzenegger who can veto the proposal.
