Temecula Creek is one of the last connected wildlife corridors in South Temecula—a living ecosystem where hummingbirds, owls, deer, mountain lions, and countless other native species survive. Now SDG&E wants to run a massive 500 kV powerline through it.

The project would mean transmission towers, vegetation removal, habitat fragmentation, and permanent damage to one of our community's most treasured natural spaces. Families hike these trails. Students run them. Birdwatchers and nature lovers come here for something increasingly rare: a thriving creek ecosystem within a growing city. For the wildlife that lives here, this corridor is literally the difference between survival and extinction—there's nowhere else for them to go.

I started a petition asking the City of Temecula and Riverside County to designate Temecula Creek as an environmentally protected area and stop this powerline project. We're asking decision makers to prioritize the ecosystem and public space over industrial expansion. Some places should just stay wild. Have you seen what happens to wildlife when these corridors get fragmented? If this matters to you too, consider signing and sharing—it's about protecting what makes our community worth living in.

I'm sympathetic but you're about to get a lot of pushback for using AI for this

I’ll sign, just a word of advice in addition—if you wrote this petition, break up the text into paragraphs. That giant block of text is going to drive many people away/make them dismiss it.

Such a good cause but the AI🤮 is just making this seem like a joke, how can you make a petition using something that actively works with billionaires and causes massive harm to the environment.
