About C-3
Even before the California Coastal Commission or Environmental Protection Agency existed, Citizens Coordinate for Century 3 (C-3) was the environmental conscience of San Diego. Since that time, in part due to C-3’s leadership in education, advocacy, and empowerment, a plethora of organizations have developed throughout San Diego County. These organizations specifically focus on promoting progressive values in architecture, urban design, land-use governance, natural resource management, sustainable economic development, climate change resilience, and social justice. As the field of allies has grown, C-3’s role has evolved to provide a platform that promotes creating civic community.

Quotes:
“We thought at the beginning that it would be a way to just make a little bit more money than selling directly, but what we found out is that we’re selling fishing, not fish. We’re showing people a window into the life of a fisherman and the ocean around them.” — Pete [3:15]
“This market is important because it activates the waterfront.” — Pete [9:15]
“Water quality is probably the most important thing. If the water quality is poor, things die.” — Pete [12:55]
“I say, you come to the market, and the fish has zero miles on it.” — Pete [14:36]
“If you buy locally, you benefit the planet, so how can you go wrong?” — Pete [18:17]
