WHAT WE DO:

We engage Tahoe’s diverse community of residents and visitors to take action.

OUR LEGACY OF SUCCESS:
- Defeated a proposed bridge over Emerald Bay and a plan for 750,000 year-round residents.
- Stopped sewage dumping in the Lake.
- Initiated a ban on dirty two-stroke marine engines.
- Enabled passage of the Lake Tahoe Restoration Acts, authorizing $2+ billion in funding for environmental work.

OUR RECENT IMPACTS:

-Removed 64,000 pounds of litter from beaches, trails and neighborhoods through volunteer programs
-Prevented eight aquatic invasive species infestations through partnerships with Tahoe marinas and a “citizen science” monitoring program
