保护行动动态
布法罗 - 尼亚加拉护水者(美国纽约州) 近期接受 WKBW 电视台采访,探讨追踪本地水道含盐排放物的重要性。恰逢纽约州环境保护部发起 “纽约,别太‘咸’”(Don’t Be Salty, New York)宣传活动,呼吁居民避免过量使用岩盐。活动指出,一茶匙盐就能污染 5 加仑饮用水,并提醒公众:冬季道路融雪盐常造成水道污染,威胁饮用水供应安全。该组织相关人士表示,3 月道路撒盐后,监测到水体氯化物含量显著升高,强调今年冬季每个人都应注意控制用盐量。
卡卢萨护水者(美国佛罗里达州) 敦促迈尔斯堡市迅速采取行动。此前检测发现,曼努埃尔溪(Manuel’s Branch)存在持续的人类粪便污染,90% 至 200% 的检测时段内,水道粪便细菌含量超标。污染源追踪证实,这条贯穿迈尔斯堡市中心的休闲水道中存在人类排泄物。该组织警告居民,接触受污染水体可能面临重大公共健康风险。
哥伦比亚河护水者(美国俄勒冈州) 近期发布报告,对哥伦比亚河沿岸拟新建的一座可再生柴油厂提出质疑,认为其可能无法助力俄勒冈州实现减排目标。该组织律师奥黛丽・伦纳德(Audrey Leonard)表示,该工厂超过 90% 的原料将来自大豆、油菜等低碳足迹较低的作物,而非公司宣传的低碳废油。事实上,餐饮废油等真正可持续的原料供应有限且价格更高,这在很大程度上是受加利福尼亚州等大型市场需求影响。目前,哥伦比亚河护水者正在法庭上对该工厂的两项许可提出异议。
安大略湖护水者(加拿大) 负责人马克・马特森(Mark Mattson)在其 Substack 专栏最新文章中,探讨了水资源保护的迫切性。在加拿大倡导健康水道多年后,马特森始终围绕核心问题展开思考:“水资源为何需要你的保护?” 这篇深度文章汇聚了他对水资源的洞察、发现与个人经历,值得深入阅读。
恭喜迈阿密护水者(美国佛罗里达州) 获得福克斯温德基金会(Foxwynd Foundation)近 1.55 万美元的配比赠款!这笔资金将使该组织 “清洁水源,繁荣栖息地:志愿者修复项目” 的每笔捐款影响力翻倍,用于扩大海岸栖息地修复和海洋垃圾清理活动,动员数百名社区志愿者保护比斯坎湾的关键生态系统。借助这些资源,社区成员将获得更多机会修复南佛罗里达州的原生生态系统 —— 这些区域因交通不便往往被忽视。迈阿密护水者、福克斯温德基金会与社区居民将携手合作,培育更健康的栖息地,减少海洋垃圾,为野生动物和居民打造更具韧性的海湾环境。
山境联盟(MountainTrue,美国北卡罗来纳州) 正举办 “非洲清洁水源” 慈善拍卖活动,为乌干达和肯尼亚的护水者合作伙伴提供支持。该联盟是布罗德河护水者、弗伦奇布罗德河护水者、格林河护水者、瓦托加河护水者及上纽河护水者的母体机构。拍卖所得将 100% 直接用于为非洲缺水社区建造水井和安装滤水器,每 1 美元都能为最需要的人带去清洁水源。拍卖品丰富多样,涵盖皮划艇、高空滑索体验、树屋住宿、湖边小屋休闲套餐、野外生存探险、牧场之旅、高尔夫度假、国际旅行、精美艺术品,甚至一头奶牛!欢迎参与竞价并帮忙宣传,让这些改变生活的项目惠及更多人!

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT
Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper (New York, U.S.) was recently featured on WKBW, to discuss the importance of tracking salty discharge into local waterways. This comes as the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation launches the “Don’t Be Salty, New York” campaign, which encourages residents to avoid overusing rock salt. The campaign highlights that a single teaspoon of salt can contaminate five gallons of drinking water. It also reminds the public that winter road salt often pollutes our waterways, threatening our drinking water supplies. Cute noted that higher chloride levels were observed in March following road salt application and stressed that everyone should be mindful of how much salt they use this winter.
Calusa Waterkeeper (Florida, U.S.) is urging the city of Fort Myers to act swiftly after testing revealed ongoing human fecal contamination in Manuel’s Branch. Results indicate that the waterway exceeds state standards for fecal bacteria 90% to 200% of the time. Human source tracing confirmed the presence of human waste in this recreational waterway, which runs through downtown Fort Myers. The organization warns residents of significant public health risks associated with contact with the contaminated water.
Columbia Riverkeeper (Oregon, U.S.) recently released a report raising concerns about a proposed renewable diesel plant on the Columbia River, suggesting it may fall short of supporting Oregon’s emissions goals. According to Audrey Leonard, staff attorney for Columbia Riverkeeper, over 90% of the facility’s fuel would be sourced from high-carbon crops like soy and canola, rather than the low-carbon waste oil the company promotes. Truly sustainable sources such as used cooking oils are limited and more expensive, largely due to demand from large markets like California. Columbia Riverkeeper is currently challenging two of the facility’s permits in court.
Lake Ontario Waterkeeper (Canada) Mark Mattson’s latest Substack article explores the crucial need for water protection. After years of advocating for healthier waterways in Canada, Mattson continually returns to the central question: “Why Does Water Need Your Protection?” Dive into his insights, discoveries, and personal journey with water in this thoughtful piece.
Congratulations to Miami Waterkeeper (Florida, U.S.) on receiving a matching grant of nearly $15,500 from the Foxwynd Foundation, doubling the impact of every donation to the organization’s “Clean Water, Thriving Habitats: Volunteer Restoration Project.” This grant supports expanded coastal habitat restoration and marine debris clean-up events, engaging hundreds of community volunteers to protect Biscayne Bay’s vital ecosystems. With these resources, community members will have more opportunities to restore South Florida’s native ecosystems, which are often neglected due to their inaccessibility. Together, Miami Waterkeeper, the Foxwynd Foundation, and community members will foster healthier habitats, reduce marine debris, and create a more resilient Bay for both wildlife and residents.
MountainTrue, the parent organization of Broad Riverkeeper, French Broad Riverkeeper, Green Riverkeeper, Watauga Riverkeeper, and Upper New Riverkeeper (North Carolina, U.S.), is hosting a fundraising auction for Clean Water for Africa in support of Waterkeeper partners in Uganda and Kenya. Every dollar helps build wells and install water filters, bringing clean water to communities that need it most. What’s up for grabs? Pretty much anything you can imagine: a raft, zip line, treehouse stay, lake house lounging, wilderness survival adventures, dude ranch trips, golf getaways, international vacations, stunning art, even a cow. 100% of proceeds go directly to these life-changing projects so please place a bid and help spread the word!
