#Stormwater #CleanWaterCA
If your commute calls for a cup of coffee, make sure it doesn’t get littered along the way! 🥤Cups discarded along roadsides can clog storm drains & pollute waterways. Instead, keep a bag in your car to hold trash until you can properly discard it. That's the #CleanWaterCA way! pic.twitter.com/okCrLf4P82
