River Climate Action is Announced by Rushing Rivers Institute.
Scientists have concurred that global warming is a real phenomenon. Even the most moderate of predictions show the Earth warming nearly several degrees Celsius by the year 2100, which is a radical increase. One of the things most affected by this change is our world’s Rivers.
Fish reside in this critical bodies of water which serve as the canary in the coal mine of climate change. As a result of global warming, water temperatures have profoundly increased thirty-five to forty degrees over the last half-century.. This change has caused fish species that enjoy southern, warmer waters to migrate north, inciting a food competition
Similarly, parasites accustomed to warmer areas are having to move northbound as well, infecting fish and other species who are not accustomed to their presence. This spreads quickly to other animals that depend on the fish, such as bears, eagles, and even humans.
Because of these imminent threats, Rushing Rivers Institute has announced its anti-climate change campaign, Rivers Climate Action. Through our scientific background, community connections and educational resources, River Climate Action will spearhead this problem.
Several initiatives will be put into place to see this goal. Firstly, a research plan to establish the best recommendations to combat Climate Change. Secondly, an action plan to implement those recommendations. Thirdly, a management network to reach out and coordinate the efforts of other groups.
Apathy is the worst course of action. The time is now to take a stand against a problem that will cause catastrophic problems in the very near future for our children and grandchildren. Educating yourself on the issue is the first step to assisting and remedying the solution.
Please take the time to see how global warming is hurting our planet. You can visit our website at http://www.riverclimate.org to read further on the situation. Your help is greatly appreciated.
