NATURE
Leave driftwood on the shore
When I see driftwood being used for construction, art, or firewood I feel sad. Left in nature, driftwood serves a number of roles. One is to help protect shorelines from erosion. What I say on beach walks with my grandchildren as they pick up interesting things is, “If it’s man-made you can take it home, but if it’s nature-made, leave it alone.”
