The Indian River Lagoon is a 156-mile-long estuary that runs along the eastern coast of Florida, from Ponce de Leon Inlet in Volusia County to Jupiter Inlet in Palm Beach County. It is one of the most biodiverse ecosystems in North America, with over 4,000 species of plants and animals, and it supports numerous commercial and recreational activities in the region. However, the lagoon has been facing serious environmental challenges, including pollution, habitat loss, and harmful algae blooms (HABs). According to the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program, the lagoon has lost over 47,000 acres of seagrass since the 1940s, and in 2016, a massive HAB caused a fish kill that displaced or killed tens of thousands of animals.
The Indian River Lagoon specialty license plate is a way for Florida drivers to support the conservation and restoration of this vital ecosystem. The new design features a beautiful illustration of the lagoon's iconic dolphin-centric logo, with blue, green, and yellow colors representing the water, seagrass, and sun. The plate costs $25 in addition to the usual registration fees, and the proceeds go to the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program, a nonprofit organization that works to protect and restore the lagoon's health and vitality. Your purchase of this license plate can help fund projects such as seagrass restoration, stormwater management, and public education on environmental issues.
