Coastal Stewardship

Coastal stewardship involves responsible management and protection of coastal areas, such as beaches, estuaries, and shoreline habitats. It aims to balance human use—like recreation, fishing, and development—with preserving natural ecosystems that support wildlife, protect against erosion, and maintain water quality. Good stewardship includes actions like conservation efforts, pollution reduction, community engagement, and sustainable planning. By caring for coastal environments, we ensure they remain healthy and resilient for future generations, providing economic, recreational, and ecological benefits.
