Use a commercial car wash Put dog poop in the trash Use organic or natural yard products All of the above! Clean up a Beach What happens to trash left on the beach or street? Nothing.

Tell my local representative that it’s important. All of the above! Protect Streams What’s a good way to protect a salmon stream as it flows into the Salish Sea?
