To Preserve, Protect and Sustain
The Laguna Greenbelt
Our main purpose as defined by our mission statement reads as follows:
“The purpose of The Laguna Greenbelt is to preserve and protect the environment in and around Laguna Beach and Orange County.”
Where needed we have answered the call to protect the land, sometimes through education and outreach, at other times through negotiation and environmental litigation but most of the time through simple persuasion and dedication to this beautiful land.
Whether the threat be development, a golf course proposal in the wilderness, water runoff from nearby developments or any proposal that sacrifices or threatens the long-term survival of The Laguna Greenbelt wilderness, our organization stands ready.
The eyes of the Greenbelt can never blink or close as developers and unknowing others instigate proposals that could harm the natural landscape.
Primarily the organizations’ 40+ years history has been about our determination to preserve and protect and share our love of the land and to leave something beautiful for future generations to enjoy.

The Laguna Greenbelt Fact:
Coyotes are carnivorous animals that are plentiful throughout the Greenbelt. The coyote has grayish-brown to yellowish-brown fur on top and whitish fur on its underparts. It has large triangular ears on the top of its head and a long, narrow muzzle. It has a black nose, yellow eyes and a long, bushy tail. One way to tell the coyote apart from wolves and dogs is to watch its tail when it runs. The coyote runs with its tail down. Dogs run with their tails up and wolves run with their tails straight out.
