For 25 years, volunteers have kept SF Bay thriving. But the Bay needs care year-round, not just during Earth Month. $5 a month = 15 lbs of trash removed from the shoreline. That's bottles, wrappers, and pollution kept out of the Bay. Power the next 25 years of impact. savesfbay.org/bay-sustainer/

The Bay Area has some scenic highway drives—and some are at risk. Hwy 37 (SR37) runs along the Sonoma Baylands & San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Frequent flooding, traffic gridlock, and outdated designs make commutes harder while cutting off thousands of acres of marshlands from the Bay.
