Join David McGuire (Shark Stewards/Golden Gate MPA Collaborative) in a discussion about MPAs and the health of our oceans.

California’s marine protected areas (MPAs) are home to a breathtaking diversity of ocean and estuarine habitats and species. This event will feature a video on MPAs to learn more about what they are, how they work, the resources they protect, and the people on the front lines working to make them a success.
