Happy Summer!
Stay cool & beat the heat! Visit Mt. San Jacinto riding the historic Palm Springs Aerial Tramway and expect temperatures 40 degrees cooler than the desert valley floor.

It's going to take a village to raise an environmentally literate California.

Summer TIP: How to cool down using Yogic breathing:
Either make a taco tongue and breathe through your tongue like a straw, or purse your lips and breathe, sipping air over the tongue, then close your mouth at the top of your inhalation and exhale through the nose. It works like a swamp cooler (evaporative cooling) and the same way a dog cools down. Be well!
