The 13,000 year old Jurupa Oak is a remarkable relic from a time before history, surviving multiple epochs and standing as a testament to the enduring power of nature. The proposed Rio Visita Specific Plan in the City of Jurupa Valley is threatening this natural monument by scheduling construction of light industrial and manufacturing warehouses within 200 feet of the Oak, thereby endangering the tree and disrupting the unique ecosystem that surrounds it. The Jurupa Oak is one of the oldest manifestations of life on this planet and its loss would be underscoring our negligence towards preserving history and biodiversity. Furthermore, the decimation of the natural landscape surrounding the Oak could disrupt the habitat and survival of numerous species that call this area home. By signing this petition, we are taking a stand against such destructive development plans and advocating for the preservation of ancient lifeforms, natural habitats, and land that is sacred to the First Peoples. Please, join us in protecting the Jurupa Oak and its surrounding landscape from potential harm. Sign the petition today.
