We are changing the afterschool experience and the lives of 150 high school youth each year. One at a time. They are not only learning STEM skills and preparing for environmental careers and green jobs, but they are also giving back with service learning projects and productive positive change in our schools, our communities, and our environment. Please consider supporting Earth Team this #GivingTuesday by visiting earthteam.net #givingtuesday #sustainableyouth #earthteam

September is Coastal Cleanup Month! This year, cleaning the coast will start at our own front doors. For safety reasons, there are no large, centrally organized cleanup sites this year. Instead, cleanups will be self-guided and close to home. Practice #physicaldistancing distancing, and strictly follow both local ordinances and safety guidelines Cleaning your neighborhoods, local parks, streets, and storm drains helps protect our coast. Trash travels through storm drains, creeks, and rivers to become beach and ocean pollution. Help clean the beach by picking up litter in your neighborhood with your household! #coastalcleanupday is happening every Saturday in September, but you can cleanup any day and time that works best for you! For information on Coastal Cleanup Days in Contra Costa County visit: ccrcd.org For Alameda County visit: alamedacoastalcleanup.eventbrite.com For information about safety guidelines and how to contact your local coordinator visit: coastalcleanupday.org #protectyourhappyplace #coastalcleanupmonth #marinedebris #plasticpollution #sustainableyouth

This week, both Arroyo and Skyline interns learned how to conduct informational interviews. They asked questions about college life and career paths to grad students and young professionals. Connecting with folks in Southern California, Canada, England and even Australia is truly a silver lining of global shelter-in-place. Thank you to Andrew, Alejandro, Erika, Elliot, Heidi and Lachlan!

Washing just one pair of jeans can release as many as 50,000 microfibers. A new study examined how this material sheds while going through the laundry, where these pieces wind up, and it isn't pretty.
