This holiday season, you can make a difference for the health of our rivers, creeks, canyons, beaches, bays, and ocean. By San Diego Coastkeeper directly, or considering one of these great local companies when you are doing your Christmas shopping and decorating, you will be supporting clean water, showing your love for the coast, and ensuring our local rivers flow #TrashFreeToTheSea. Here are eight things you can do today to get in the holiday spirit and make a difference at the same time.
