Highlights from the August 30×30 statewide newsletter:
What makes California so special? Its biodiversity! Within the state’s iconic and diverse landscapes live millions of organisms, including thousands of unique plant and animal species—more than anywhere else in the US. This extraordinary biodiversity is at the core of what sustains our livelihoods, cultures, and well-being.
