Tammy Ramos, a youth organizer with Communities for a Better Environment (CBE), led a lawsuit against the city of Los Angeles. Living in Wilmington, home to extensive oil operations, Tammy and other youth plaintiffs challenged the city's approval of oil drilling without proper environmental review, a violation of state law.

Despite intervention from the California Independent Petroleum Association (CIPA), whose claims were dismissed by appellate and Supreme Courts, the youth prevailed. This victory prompted Los Angeles to implement stronger environmental reviews for drilling projects. Tammy continues to fight environmental racism, inspiring fellow youth leaders to drive change in their communities.
