Think Blue San Diego

Come join Think Blue, I Love A Clean San Diego and San Diego Canyonlands for the Hollywood Canyon Community Clean up on Nov 5. Canyons are so vital to the topography of San Diego. Keeping them clean is an essential way to reduce pollution in our environment and waterways. #thinkblue #canyoncleanup

Water conservation, especially through native landscaping and rain barrel collection, also helps to reduce the amount of potential run-off from your property into our storm drains. Water conservation is also pollution prevention. #thinkblue #waterquality #onewaterwednesday #StormWater

I am with some furry friends today, asking them whether their owners... you know... scoop the poop? Pet waste can cause harmful bacteria to show up in our storm drains and our local waterways. That is why picking up after your pet is an easy way to prevent water pollution and maintain water quality. #stormwater #thinkblue #scoopthepoop #waterquality https://www.sandiego.gov//d/files/pet_waste_final_2016.pdf

This Sunday is the anniversary of the Clean Water Act passed in 1972. Monitoring and maintaining our water quality is a central mission of San Diego's Storm Water Division. Meet the scientists in charge of monitoring our water. #thinkblue #waterquality #cleanwateract https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGQB5bSKmPo

Say hello to our new street sweeper! This street sweeper might look a little different than our others because it's much smaller and 100% electric. Its size makes it perfect to sweep smaller, narrower areas such as bike lanes. We are excited about our new edition to the street sweeper fleet! What should we name her? #thinkblue #streetsweeper #streetsweeping
