Presented by David and Margaret Carlberg
Orange County’s 1200-acre Bolsa Chica Wetland is a textbook example of how the perseverance of a group of private citizens can block the destruction of a major ecological resource. Through slides and a video, David and Margaret Carlberg will relate their personal experience in one of the most successful environmental battles in the state’s history.
David is a retired California State University, Long Beach, professor, a past president of the Amigos de Bolsa Chica and the author of a history of the Bolsa Chica Wetland. Margaret is a past president of the Orange County Sea and Sage chapter of the Audubon Society and a retired high school chemistry teacher.
