Hi all,
Today I want to talk about garbage that ends up in our rivers and lakes. When my Dad canoed on the Red River he would pull garbage out of the water (see the pictures below). He said that there were cans, bottles, cardboard, plastic bags, styrofoam, construction material, and fishing gear in the water. This stuff hurts waterbirds, wading birds, shorebirds, birds of prey, turtles, fish, beavers, mink, muskrats, otters and other animals that rely of rivers and lakes for habitat and food. Please keep garbage our of our waters.
Until next time,
Grace
