We have much more to do and your continued support is needed now more than ever.
The Nation’s Water Under Attack
Congress should be focused on keeping our waters clean and healthy and protecting people and wildlife instead of compromising our wellbeing in favor of large corporations saving money so that they can simply cause more problems and threaten our way of life. Dumping pollutants into our waterways only causes problems. Clean water is a right for humans as well as wildlife. Water has always represented something that is clean and pure. It is used to purify our souls in religion and to cleanse our bodies of the grit and grime of life. Wildlife also relies on both large and small waterways for survival. By removing more regulations to protect our water things will only get worse for humans as well as wildlife.
Water has always been a big part of my life and many of my most fond memories are based around rivers and lakes. From the frigid waters of Puget Sound and Lake Union to wading through streams, rivers and lakes across the country I have always loved getting out and enjoying the natural beauty of our nations waters. Diving into Lake Union in Seattle to escape from the summer heat now warrants a hearty scrubbing, usually within moments of exiting the water.
There is still time to help! Take action and tell congress that clean water is a priority! Also, tell us about your favorite bodies of water and what you love about water!
