A Cleaner Yuba Starts With You

WHAT IS "Good 4 The Yuba"?

Good 4 The Yuba is a student-created and led project, aiming to lessen the amount of chemical sunscreens entering our waterways. These chemical sunscreens negatively impact the Yuba River when they build up. They add unnatural, harmful chemicals to the water, lowering water quality, and affecting aquatic life in the river, including hindering the reproductive cycles of fish. This can cause a slick surface in the river in the summer months, and cause disease among many local types of fish and aquatic wildlife. By promoting sunscreens that don't harm the Yuba, we can dent this issue, keeping our beloved river pristine and a habitat for the wildlife that needs it, which is what this project is all about.
