IS YOUR HOME OR BUSINESS A BAY STAR?

We live in a beautiful region surrounded by water. It impacts everything from the food we eat to the fun we have as well as our economic livelihood. Our daily actions have a lasting impact and it's up to us to protect and restore our waterways. It takes a community of individuals making small changes to make a difference. Getting involved in the Bay Star programs is one way you can be part of the effort to protect our region's most defining natural resource, water.

What’s the good, green word?

Calling all tree huggers! Did you know that hugging a tree really can make you feel happier? Through hormones and whatnot, you feel calmer and, well, happier. So today, World Forestry Day, it seems reasonable that we might encourage you to go visit a nearby forest and hug a tree. Or two!

What do forests do for us besides make us feel better?
🌳 They filter the air, removing pollutants.
🌳 The provide medicines.
🌳 They provide water.
🌳 Many species call them home, about 80% of land animals.

Can you see the forest for the trees? Let’s appreciate all that trees do for us and protect our wonderful forests.
