Attention #Richmond residents! A Superfund site known as #UnitedHeckathorn is a major source of DDT and other pollutants contaminating the Bay and shoreline. The site was supposed to be cleaned up in the 90s, but that effort failed. We want to make sure that doesn’t happen again.

On 4/23 the #EPA will host a Zoom call to engage with the community where they will describe why the last cleanup failed and the plan to move forward.

Please bring your questions for EPA and state officials! usepa.zoomgov.com/meeting/regi

Golden Gate in the Fog II

On this day I took a walk down at the east end of Christy Fields. As we made our way towards the Golden Gate Bridge fog started creeping in, at times, completely hiding the bridge. Depending on the wind we could see it or not for a few minutes here and there. The sun lit the bridge up wonderfully above the fog.

Golden Gate and The City

I captured this image of San Francisco and the Golden Gate bridge on a cool winter day with a small storm clearing and blowing past the city.
This was captured from a location known as Hawk Hill in the Marin Headlands. Hawk Hill allows one of the highest vantage points of the bridge and the city.

Worryingly, the Trump administration is showing signs it will try to override rules protecting endangered species in the Bay & Delta.

"The Trump administration is proposing to eliminate the rules entirely and just go for broke, which will result in the destruction of the San Francisco Bay ecosystem. Several extinctions, permanent closures of fisheries," as our lead scientist @jarosenfield told ABC7 News: abc7news.com/post/scientists-e

A reminder of what the Bay looked like before environmental regulation—open dumping of industrial waste, raw sewage, and fuel, and constant oil spills.

Before EPA and laws like the Clean Water Act, America's waters were choked with pollution. Ohio's Cuyahoga River, which became a symbol of environmental degradation in the 60s, was so polluted that it repeatedly caught fire.

Today, it's estimated that the #CleanWaterAct alone prevents 700 *billion* pounds of toxic pollution from entering US waters every single year.

We MUST defend these vital laws and institutions.
