We’re so excited that we got to include this image of San Francisco, California, and the surrounding Bay Area, in the book’s section about water. Home to some eight million people, the region was captured here by satellite at a low angle from 800 miles away over the Pacific Ocean. When freshwater from inland California mixes with salty water coming from the ocean, it creates brackish wetlands that provide a vibrant habitat for wildlife, including many species of birds. Over the last century, nearly 80 percent of the Bay’s wetland habitats have been diked and filled for building, farming, and salt extraction.
