🌧️ Rain causes stormwater runoff to carry litter, oil, and chemicals into rivers and oceans. To reduce pollution, practice Leave No Trace:

💙 Dispose of waste properly
💙 Use natural or no pesticides and fertilizers
💙 Pick up after pets
💙 Secure outdoor items

During the government shutdown, many public spaces remain open, but they need us more than ever. With limited staff, every small action matters.

Durante el cierre del gobierno, muchos espacios públicos permanecen abiertos, pero ahora nos necesitan más que nunca.

Our @lnt.org values come from indigenous caretakers who have long protected these lands and now lead stewardship. We’re grateful to learn from and work alongside local tribal partners in building a future rooted in respect, reciprocity, and reverence.

Plastic Free July may be over, but reducing our plastic use is a year-round commitment. 🌊

Test your knowledge—take the "Bin There, Done That" quiz created by @seagrant_noaa through the link in our bio.

Small, mindful choices add up to big impacts for the coastlines we love. 💙

💙 80+ volunteers — from kids and parents to elders and community partners — came together to clean up roadsides across West Marin.

Together, we diverted:

Snowy plover nesting season is here! Their nests are so well-camouflaged they can be easy to miss making them vulnerable to people, pets, and predators.

Keep them safe:
🐕 Keep dogs off nesting beaches
🗑️ Trash all food scraps to avoid attracting predators
🚶‍♀️ Spend limited time near nesting spots

Loose plastic bottle caps are one of the most common litter items on California beaches. Senate Bill 45 is a game-changer!

It would require plastic bottle caps to stay attached to bottles!
