At San Diego Coastkeeper, we believe that everyday choices we make, both as individuals and as an organization, can cumulatively have a significant impact on our environment. Therefore, we continue striving to make our Ocean Gala as sustainable as possible. We seek to build relationships with eco-conscience companies and vendors to help lighten our ecological footprint as we work to achieve our mission of clean, safe and healthy waters for all San Diegans. As we formalize our 2011 Ocean Gala, we'll note here all of the Earth friendly elements.
SUSTAINABLE FOOD

WATER LITES DISPLAY
An Educational Exhibit by landscape architects at the Schmidt Design Group
Water Lites are a lighted display that convey visually and factually, the water consumption characteristics of various plant materials so that property owners and professionals can make conservation-friendly choices when planning for the drought, or renovating their landscapes to reduce water consumption.
Our Ocean Gala will include the display of these award-winning Water Lites, which gained recognition as the “Most Educational” exhibit at the Garden Show in San Diego.
