Description

 
Santa Barbara County is an area of diverse geology and ecology, marking the transition between northern and southern California. Much but not all of the natural coastal area and habitats have been protected from development, save a few ranches. And nearly 25,000 additional acres of pristine California coastline will now be protected indefinitely, thanks to a recent $165 million donation to The Nature Conservancy by Jack & Laura Dangermond, co-founders of Esri, the GIS software & solutions giant. This area, adjacent to the Los Padres National Forest, will now serve as a nature preserve and scientific laboratory for the University of California – Santa Barbara.
