Amazing tour of our new Dos Rios State Park in Modesto with @River_Partners. This new community asset is providing species habitat, flood protection for downstream communities and resources and space for Native American tribes. This is an incredible multi-benefit project.

We rely on supporters like you to fill a 20% gap in public funding and help us deliver every high-impact restoration project. A generous donor has offered $15,000 to match gifts before year-end—meaning every dollar you give will go twice as far. Donate: riverpartners.org/give

Great read from our friends @River_Partners on their work to restore salmon habitat along the Sacramento River. "It’s a lot of work—but something as vital and precious to our state’s rivers as salmon surely deserves it." 👈 We couldn't agree more! riverpartners.org/news/resto…

NEW @sdut OP-ED 📰: Natural disasters in San Diego like the recent heat wave & flooding in January are expected to drastically increase in the coming years, at Californian's expense. #YesonProp4 provides solutions to reduce the impacts of climate change! sandiegouniontribune.com/202…

Opinion: Yes on Proposition 4 now or pay more later

Changing climate conditions are affecting our health, lives and economy. Just consider what San Diegans endured over the last year. In recent weeks, a prolonged heat wave kept temperatures in the...

NEW ENDORSEMENT 📰 @sfchronicle says California needs all the help it can get to fight against the impacts of a changing climate, and #YesonProp4 makes urgent investments NOW to prevent wildfires, provide safe drinking water, & protect California! sfchronicle.com/opinion/edit…

Endorsement: Prop 4 is a drop in the bucket in the climate change fight. But we need all the drops...

The measure’s $10 billion in bond money is a small but important piece of a much larger effort to armor California against the impacts of climate change.

With a steep decline in all runs of salmon in CA, we are partnering with state and federal agencies at eight sites along a 130-mile stretch of the Sacramento River to revive and rejuvenate side channels—our state’s rivers and salmon surely deserve it. riverpartners.org/news/resto…

Though there's uncertainty around water use in the #SJV, there are some silver linings. 👉🏽 The volume of water stored underground is growing 👉🏽 Fallowed land can host solar energy, habitat, or recreation 👉🏽 Water-limited cropping can keep land productive kvpr.org/local-news/2024-06-…

A legal battle could determine fate of groundwater regulation in rural San Joaquin Valley

If local groundwater agencies can’t agree on a plan to rein in pumping voluntarily, the state could impose stricter measures.
