Perspectives

Surfrider Foundation is a grass-roots organization where most of the work is done by volunteer activists from Surfrider's 60+ chapters.

The following Perspectives were written by chapter activists, Surfrider staff, members of affiliated groups, jounalists who cover beach and ocean issues, or just citizens concerned about the state of our coasts. They illustrate the types of issues that our members confront on a daily basis. Many of the Perspectives concern Erosion Response, the featured beach health indicator in our 2008 report.

Read on to learn about these ongoing problems. Then get involved with your local chapter to be part of the solution.
