We had an amazing time celebrating National Night Out with the Point Reyes Station community! 🌖💫

Last week, Cleaner California Coast teamed up with West Marin Food Systems (https://www.instagram.com/westmarinfoodsystems/) and the West Marin Lions Club to provide sustainable food ware, a bussing station, and our Eco-Sorting Stations ♻️🗑️

Guests could choose between reusable metal plates, metal utensils, and cloth napkins or compostable alternatives, making it easy to enjoy local Marin food while reducing waste 🍽️ 🌭🍦🦪

We loved connecting with a diverse group of neighbors, families, first responders, tourists and community members of all ages while helping make the evening more sustainable!👮‍♀️👏👩‍🚒

🌊 Four simple practices. One healthier coast!

The Cleaner California Coast principles are how all of us — visitors and locals alike — can help protect the beaches, trails, forests, and watersheds we love. Here's what they're all about:

1️⃣ Know Before You Go — Check conditions, regulations, and facilities ahead of your trip so you arrive prepared and leave a lighter footprint.

2️⃣ Trash Your Trash — Pack out everything you bring in, and dispose of waste properly. If you packed it, take it back.

3️⃣ What to Do With P**p — Yep, we're talking about it! 🐶 Pick up after pets and find a restroom to keep our water and sand clean.

4️⃣ Be Considerate of Coastal Communities — Respect the people, wildlife, and places that make this coastline special. We all share it!

Why it matters: Over 10 million people visit the Marin, Sonoma & Mendocino coastline every year, and tens of thousands of pounds of trash get pulled from these sensitive ecosystems annually. The small choices we each make add up to a healthier coast for wildlife, watersheds, and the communities who call it home. 🐚

And who better to teach these lessons than the next generation? 👏 This skit was written and performed by our incredible 8th grade interns from Lagunitas Elementary, who spent their time with us learning what coastal stewardship really means — and then brought all four principles to life. Huge thanks to Magnolia Project for partnering with us to make it happen.

It's Plastic Free July, and we're here with some tips to keep our coastlines free of plastic! 🏖️

Plastics make up a significant portion of litter both on beaches and in the oceans. This waste not only makes beaches less enjoyable for humans, but hurts marine life. Reduce your plastic usage and Leave No Trace by following our principles.

🚰 Know Before You Go: Start off strong by not bringing any single-use plastics or styrofoam with you. Instead, bring your food and liquids in reusable containers to keep them fresh on your trip!

🗑️ Trash Your Trash: Pack out all your trash with you, plastic or not! Instead of using a new plastic trash bag, consider getting a reusable dry bag, or repurposing another bag you have.

🐕 What To Do With P**p: Bring a reusable or eco-friendly bag for your pet waste, or reuse a handy bag from the grocery store.

🫂Be Considerate of Coastal Communities: We love our coastal communities, so respect them by not leaving plastic litter.

The best way to Leave No Trace is to stop waste at its source! While it can be hard to stop using plastic entirely, eliminating single-use plastics and reusing what you have goes a long way.

Celebrate America's 250th anniversary by keeping our coastline clean this Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙

July 5th is the dirtiest day of the year for beaches along the California coast, but it doesn't have to be! Leave No Trace during your celebrations this year by following these tips:
🚯 Pack it in, pack it out. Trash cans at the beach don't have capacity for Fourth of July celebrations, and overflowing trashcans do more harm than good. Bring all your trash home from the beach to dispose of it.
🐟 Reduce single-use plastic waste by bringing food and drinks in reusable containers, and using reusable utensils. Red solo cups are fun at parties, but bad for marine life!
🎆 Dispose of fireworks debris properly. Fireworks trash makes up a large portion of post-celebration litter. If you don't pick it up, someone else will have to. Help the community by packing out your own fireworks before you leave.
🤝 Give back! If you see litter on the beach that's not yours, help out by picking it up, or volunteer for one of the many July 5th cleanup events.

Our country's nature is beautiful, but it only stays that way if we all do our part to Leave No Trace. Tell us about your Fourth of July plans in the comments below!

Repackage your consumables with these 5 reusable tools! ♻️🗑️Get rid of any packaging you can before recreating so that you produce less trash while there (and have less trash to pack out!) by using:
🥣 Glass or stainless steel containers
👝 Food grade silicone bags
🚰 Reusable water bottles (collapsible ones are extra helpful!)
🍴 Reusable metal, wooden, or silicone utensils
🐝 Biodegradable beeswax wrap

Taking your food and liquids out of plastic or paper packaging and using one of these containers instead stores your food better and gives you less to worry about during an outdoor trip. If you’re tired of dealing with snack wrappers, a reusable bag WILL save you.

Reduce trash from the start by making your own meals/snacks instead of buying prepackaged food! Making your own granola bars, fruit snacks, etc is healthier and creates less waste. You can use bento boxes to partition your food into nice portions and reduce food waste too!

Even with repackaging, we all have waste after a trip. Make sure to pack out all your trash and don’t litter! To pack out trash, you can reuse a Ziploc or other food packaging like a bread bag. You can also buy a dry bag if you want to divert from plastics, and they come in different sizes. Be prepared so that you Leave No Trace!
