Plus, the lack of restoration funds will impact the safety of the drinking water supply for South Florida. Everglades Foundation has set up a web site that makes it easy for you to help: www.fundtheeverglades.com And after you visit their web site, send a letter, email, or call Tallahassee and tell them to restore the funding.

The salt marshes of the Mississippi River Delta may be the most endangered habitats in the United States.

  2. Well, if we don’t do it, nobody will. We do it or kiss the fisheries goodbye. No whining. 😉
