Our mission

Keep Tahoe Blue protects and restores the environmental health, sustainability and scenic beauty of the Lake Tahoe Basin. We focus on water quality and its clarity for the preservation of a pristine Lake for future generations.

See Our Vision
"Keep Tahoe Blue" means a crystal clear Lake, functioning and healthy forests, meadows, streams and marshes that support abundant native plants and wildlife, an active and informed community of residents and visitors who act as stewards for the Lake, and communities and facilities within longstanding urban boundaries that harmonize with the natural environment by finding a balance between outdoor recreation, human uses and a Lake resilient to climate change now and into the future.

We are the donor-funded, science-based organization of environmental experts and Tahoe-lovers who have led the protection and restoration of the Lake Tahoe Basin since 1957.

Our work as Tahoe’s leading environmental advocate is guided by a set of core values.

With the help of our supporters, we’ve achieved a lot to Keep Tahoe Blue in our almost 70-year history.
