Recently, the city of San Francisco has been considering opening the area around the Crystal Springs Reservoir to the public. Known for its beautiful views, the reservoir is home to many species of wildlife that seek refuge in its safe environment. One of these species is the marbled murrelet, a type of duck. This species, as well as many other species surrounding the reservoir will be harmed if it is opened to the public. Therefore, we have decided to take action.
Many environmentalists have taken this discussion to facebook, creating facebook groups and providing frequent updates. We want to do our part in saving this amazing location. If the area were to be opened to the public, there are several possible dangers to the wildlife that resides there. There is a risk of forest fires from campfires that go awry. The wildlife could potentially be pushed out of the area or even completely eliminated. There are endless possibilities, but our goal is for the community to not reach that level of extremity. A common question that people ask is “what can I do to help?’ Well, we have the answer for you, and we’ve shortened the list down into three simple, easy-to-understand options.
We hope that you take some of our points into account and join our journey. Help us save the reservoir! P.S. Check out our Instagram account and our Facebook page by clicking on the icons above!
