"Nature can really restore itself. In many cases if we give it a chance, if we give it a head start, we give it a push. And that's what we're doing here," says David Lewis, director of the nonprofit Save the Bay.
"The tidal marshes around San Francisco Bay are doing a lot to benefit people and to benefit the environment. They sequester greenhouse gases. They sequester carbon. So they're helping us reduce climate change impacts. They help us adapt to sea level rise. They are buffers between our built environment and the open bay. Their habitat for wildlife including endangered species, including the salt marsh harvest mouse, super cute little mouse. They improve water quality in the bay. They feed the San Francisco Bay,"
