Environmental Ventura
Ventura California is located in a very special place--on the south ocean-facing side of dramatic hills. Those hills, its narrow cityscape, its beaches, natural harbor, bordering rivers and estuaries, and a balmy Mediterranean climate make it a happy destination for vacationers and permanent dwellers.




ENVIRONMENTAL VENTURA dedicates itself to displaying the natural attractions of the place and its surroundings in word and image -- and revealing the forces that woud overwhelm it with development.
