The Ogeechee-Canoochee Riverkeeper needs your help! They’re trying to stop a bunch of new coal-fired power plants from being built on the banks of their beloved rivers — plants that would spew carbon dioxide and mercury into the environment. They’ve got a shot at beating those dreadful things back if they can prove to the authorities that there’s too much mercury in the river already.
The group has its sights set on a $10,000 grant from Miller-Coors and River Network, all they need is a few more votes to carry them over the top. From you! They’ll use the money to collect fish from various sites around the river and measure the amount of mercury in their bodies, proving once and for all that those coal plants don’t belong along the river.
Click here to vote for Ogeechee-Canoochee Riverkeeper! Polls close soon, so do it now!
Yes, yes. Full disclosure. All the groups competing for the grant are worthy, but Ogeechee-Canoochee Riverkeeper is my client.
