In 1989, no one was out on San Francisco Bay looking for pollution. Alarmed by the Bay’s slow poisoning from thousands of sources, a visionary group of volunteer board members founded San Francisco Baykeeper. The new organization soon became known for reining in polluters and preventing pollution—and has gone on to change the fate of San Francisco Bay. It has been 25 years since then, and Baykeeper has a list of remarkable achievements protecting the Bay ecosystem. Photo by Bart Quigley
