Congratulations to 8th grader Matsu, who took 1st place in this year’s California Coastal Commission Climate Storytelling Contest with her thoughtful photo essay!
This statewide competition drew submissions from students across California, including high school students, making Matsu’s achievement especially impressive. We’re so proud of her creativity, perspective, and commitment to telling an important story about our environment.
Way to go, Matsu!
