Most people don't automatically label Latinos as environmentalists. A deeper look at family, home and community values reveals a long-standing generational commitment to conservation and the wise use of everyday resources in daily life. California's changing demographics all point to a tremendous potential for greater environmental progress and opportunities for deeper engagement by Latinos in the U.S.
