Cleaning the Rivers of the World is a project of the South Ukiah chapter of Rotary International. Located in beautiful Northern California, South Ukiah Rotary (SUR) provides support, leadership, and fellowship for its members and the projects they inspire within the community, and abroad.
Why We Care
Children are being seen with increasing incidence of abdominal and other cancers – believed to be caused by polluted water and air.
Poorly or untreated effluent is released directly into waterways in many communities. Industrial waste is often allowed to flow into our rivers.
Uncontrolled runoff from agriculture contains harmful chemicals – herbicides, pesticides, and excess fertilizers. Regional and national economies are severely impacted.
It’s EVERYONE’s business to clean up our rivers and there are many ways to help.
