California proclaims August 10, 2026, as Coastal Stewardship Day.
California proclaims August 10, 2026, as Coastal Stewardship Day in recognition of the coast's importance to the state's economy, communities, and identity. The resolution highlights the need to protect, bolster, and conserve California's coastline, residents, and habitats. The coast supports billions in economic activity, provides critical habitats for endangered species, and is home to diverse marine life. Coastal wetlands, which have declined by 90 percent, offer protection from floods, improve water quality, and reduce climate change impacts.
