The Pacific Beach Coalition is thrilled to announce our Earth Day of Action and PelicanFest on April 26, 2025.

We’ll host multiple cleanup and habitat restoration events along the coast and around the Bay Area from 9am-11am. PelicanFest will kick off at 10:30am at Linda Mar State Beach.

Two ways to make a difference during Earth Day of Action on April 26:

1. Sign up for a volunteer opportunity. View the schedule and register online for an event near you. Please submit a signed waiver for each participating volunteer in your household. This helps us bring the right amount of supplies to each location. Due to the large volume of volunteers at many of our locations, please bring gloves, buckets, and optional trash grabbers/pickup sticks.
2. Join a community of likeminded people at PelicanFest. This family-friendly event features guest speakers, activities for all ages, live music, beach trash art, info booths, and so much more.

We can’t wait to see you there!

Other ways to take action during Earth Month.

• Host your own Street to Beach cleanup and pick up litter from an area in need. Remember: Mother Earth isn’t your trashcan or ashtray.
• Plant native CA plants such as the Silver Lupines, which are essential to the survival of the Mission Blue Butterfly (PBC Earth Honoree 2022)
• Remove invasive weeds.
• Use alternatives to pesticides such as neem oil.
• Compost your green waste and use it to build a healthy and biologically diverse soil.
• Reduce waste by buying less, reusing items, and recycling materials.
• Turn off lights and electronics when they’re not in use.
• Reduce your carbon footprint by walking, biking, carpooling, or taking public transit.
• Purchase and enjoy locally grown produce.
• Make a tax-deductible donation to the Pacific Beach Coalition so we can continue to protect and restore the coast.

“One of my favorite things about creating native species art is learning all about the species and the places where they find food and live. I also love birds, and one of my favorites is the pelican.” – Caren Loebel-Fried
