How does that saying go...time flies when you're having fun? Well somehow it's August, and in case you haven't been outside lately it's a little bit hot these days. But summer isn't over yet and whether you're a longtime steward or looking to get involved for the first time, we'd love to see you out there and in the community soon. Take a look at what's coming up this month and sign up to volunteer here: https://bit.ly/3VSBOSd

POV: You paused to admire the marsh for a minute. 🌾

The sight of bright green Spartina grass isn’t rare this time of year, but have you ever stopped to look a little closer at one of the hardest working plants in the Lowcountry?

From improving water quality and providing habitat to reducing shoreline erosion, Spartina is the foundation of a healthy salt marsh.

Follow along this summer with our intern, JJ, as he shares the science behind spartina and the research helping restore marsh ecosystems across your watershed. Visit the link in our bio for upcoming opportunities to help plant spartina and make a difference for your local marshes!

Meet Darby Reed, an amazing partner and champion for clean water!

If you've ever done a cleanup around town, chances are you've seen Darby in action. As the Volunteer & Events Coordinator at Keep Charleston Beautiful, Darby is an incredible partner in protecting the places we all love, from marsh cleanups to the recent Greatest Charleston Cleanup.

She helps inspire hundreds of volunteers to care for Charleston's rivers, marshes, and beaches and her passion for the work is so evident. We're so lucky to have her in our community!

South Carolina has a big nurdle problem, and it's not exclusive to the coast.

Ealier this month, Charleston Waterkeeper notified three companies and the SC Ports Authority that we intend to hold them accountable if they continue polluting Charleston Harbor and local rivers with careless nurdle spills. But there are others sounding the alarm, too. Last week and just upstream, Congaree Riverkeeper filed a lawsuit after repeatedly finding nurdles throughout the Congaree River, including near Congaree National Park.

From the coast to the Midlands, the companies handling and using nurdles continue to contaminate our rivers, threaten wildlife, and add to the growing burden of plastic pollution across our state. This pollution is unacceptable and 100% preventable.

That's why Charleston Waterkeeper and Congaree Riverkeeper are taking action. Read more about these cases: https://bit.ly/4g9mdcN
