Baykeeper
Founded in 1989, Baykeeper is a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting the water quality of the San Francisco Bay for the benefit of the fish, wildlife and human communities who depend on it.Baykeeper uses advocacy, science and the courts to hold polluters accountable and ensure that our clean water laws are enforced.

Lights Out San Francisco
Lights Out San Francisco is a citywide energy conservation event on October 20, 2007. On this night, we invite the entire city of San Francisco to turn off all non-essential lighting from 8-9pm. We'll publish the energy-saving results from that hour on our website (http://www.lightsoutsf.org/index.html). To promote long-lasting energy saving, we plan to distribute free compact fluorescent light bulbs throughout the city. We're hoping to make Lights Out San Francisco a recurring event – and part of a wider effort to promote energy-saving consciousness. For more information, please visit our website http://www.lightsoutsf.org/index.html.
