California

About Our Work

From the snow-capped mountains of the Sierra Nevada and the depths of Death Valley to the cropland of the Central Valley, California is a remarkably diverse state. Our California office protects the Golden State by safeguarding its air and water quality from industrial and agricultural pollution. We are also working to preserve California's public lands from rampant development and restore the environment of key regions such as the San Francisco Bay Delta.
