Fireworks Over La Jolla Cove
Environmental attorney Marco Gonzalez is the co-founder of the Coast Law Group and the Executive Director of CERF, the Coastal Environmental Rights Foundation, and has been in the vanguard in the fight against fireworks displays over the beaches at La Jolla Cove.

The Bureaucratic Plight of the La Jolla Seals
Helen Browning Scripps was one of the great civic patrons of San Diego, leaving behind a legacy of parks and civic projects which continue to enhance the lives of the city’s residents today. While not intended as a philanthropic misstep, one of Mrs. Scripps most beloved projects, the Children’s Pool at La Jolla Cove, has become something of a controversial legacy. In the late 1980s huge numbers of seals began returning to the Children’s Pool, an area which originally had been used by generations of seals who instinctively called the rocks it was built upon home.
