What You Can Do to Help Protect our Coastal Watersheds and Estuaries
Here's what you can do to protect our coastal watersheds and estuaries, our priceless resources:
At Home:
- Conserve water in your daily life.
- Install water-saving toilets and showerheads.
- Replace dripping faucets and leaky pipes.
- Dispose of household and yard chemicals properly; follow disposal directions on their labels.
- Don't be wasteful: reduce, re-use and recycle every day.
- Pick up trash; participate in trash clean-up days.
- Cut up the rings of plastic six-pack holders so that aquatic life and birds cannot become entangled in them.
- Respect your sewer system: don't pour toxic wastes, chemicals or any medications down the toilet.
