Clean water is the key to Californians' quality of life. From beachgoers of Southern California to the farmers of the Imperial Valley, from the surfers of Santa Cruz to the families that just need a clean shower and safe water to drink, Californians depend upon clean water for their health, their recreation and their livelihoods.
But pollution is fouling more and more of California's rivers, streams and bays, leaving less and less clean water for future generations.
