📰 News we're reading
• Alleged jewelry thief arrested in Morro Bay amid string of burglaries (calcoastnews.com) — Morro Bay police say a local business on the Embarcadero was burglarized early Sunday, with a large amount of jewelry recovered after a nearby traffic stop led to an arrest. Investigators are now connecting this case to recent jewelry thefts in Cayucos and Cambria and are asking anyone with information to contact Morro Bay police or the Sheriff’s Office. 
• Contrasting Trump's Campaign Against Wind Energy With Promotion of Oil and Gas, LNG, and Nuclear Projects (powermag.com) — A major offshore wind lease in the Morro Bay Wind Energy Area has been voluntarily ended by Golden State Wind, which will instead invest an equal amount in Gulf Coast oil, gas, or LNG projects. This move is part of a broader Trump administration strategy to halt wind development nationwide while steering billions in federal incentives and policy support toward fossil fuels and advanced nuclear power.
