Coming Together for a Better California
This week’s sobering news that the state may be facing another staggering budget deficit – reported to be nearly $21 billion – should be another indication that, much as we might wish it could, government just can’t do it all in times of shrinking public dollars.
That is why I’m so glad that Keep California Beautiful (KCB) is part of a highly successful public/private partnership that has provided millions of Californians the ability to do the right thing – recycle and keep trash away from our oceans, streams and waterways.
In fact, more than two years ago, KCB began an active and ongoing partnership with the California State Parks and the American Chemistry Council (ACC) that has placed, and continues to maintain, more than 500 seasonal and permanent recycle bins at more than 20 key beaches along California’s coast.
