Worlds Ocean Day

Water connects us all—from local rivers and aquifers to the vast oceans. 🌊 Today, we join millions around the globe in recognizing World Oceans Day, a movement that began at the 1992 Earth Summit and was officially recognized by the United Nations in 2002.

While the Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District doesn’t draw water from the ocean, we understand how every action upstream affects ecosystems downstream. Supporting sustainable water use, reducing pollution, and protecting water quality at home helps protect our planet’s oceans too.

“At BCVWD, we believe that managing all natural resources provides a sustainable future. Protecting surface or ground water is essential, whether it flows through our community or into the oceans, is part of our shared commitment and responsibility” said John Covington, Board Director. “Water is life, and by conserving it, we protect and ensure future generations have this precious commodity.”

Whether you enjoy kayaking, tide pooling, or simply turning off the faucet when brushing your teeth, you’re helping protect our oceans. Let’s keep the momentum going.
