Every year, huge quantities of trash find their way into our rivers. This garbage takes away from the natural beauty of the river and pollutes the water, wildlife, nature, and communities that it sustains. America’s rivers provide our drinking water, fish and wildlife habitat, and recreation areas—making the health of our rivers everyone’s priority. Clean rivers supply a healthy, vital source of water that is essential for a thriving community and environment.
You can make a difference in the health of our rivers by helping to restore a river in your local area, either through participation or organization of a river cleanup. Check out these great tips for organizing or participating in a river clean up in your area at Cascadian Farm.
