保護行動動態
阿查法拉亞盆地護水者(路易斯安那州,美國)最近與美國陸軍工程兵團新奧爾良分區(MVN)簽署了一份諒解備忘錄,旨在促進負責任的環境管理和重要自然資源的可持續利用。根據該協議,MVN承諾與阿查法拉亞盆地護水者每季度會面,并通過適當渠道共享可公開的信息。目標是更好地管理當地野生動物和利益相關者所依賴的盆地生態系統。作為回報,阿查法拉亞盆地護水者同意向社區利益相關者提供關于MVN在阿查法拉亞盆地內的計劃和擬議項目的準確信息。
下薩斯奎哈納護水者(賓夕法尼亞州,美國)最近對約克縣的一家廢品場提起了訴訟,指控其違反聯邦和州清潔水法。該協會希望此次法律行動能促使該廢品場恢復合規。訴訟稱,J&K Salvage 公司因固體廢物處理不當,導致了未經授權和過度的污染。據護水者協會稱,自2024年底以來,J&K Salvage 公司一直在沒有許可證的情況下向水道排放污染物。經過三年對該廢品場管道排放物的采樣,協會發現了未經授權的污染物,并對附近的濕地造成了污染。已確認的污染物包括金屬和有毒化學物質,如PFAs(全氟烷基化合物),這些物質會損害水質和人類健康。
薩蒂拉護水者(佐治亞州,美國)正在慶祝,因為一個擬建在薩蒂拉河岸邊的商業家禽設施的建設已被暫時叫停。一群科菲縣(Coffee County)居民在高級法院提起訴訟,尋求禁令以阻止該商業養雞場的繼續建設和運營。這個擬建設施將是密西西比河以東最大的養雞場,一次可容納多達三百萬只雞。它計劃建在薩蒂拉河50年和100年一遇的洪泛區內。居民們擔心該設施離他們的房產、農田和商業地點太近,以及它可能對健康造成的影響。雖然這項臨時禁令阻止了建設,但并未停止該設施的規劃和準備工作。法院文件還指出,大型家禽養殖場可能產生過量的磷。居民們擔心該設施會導致負面健康影響、環境問題、房產貶值以及禽流感爆發的風險。
薩旺尼護水者與圣瑪麗斯護水者(佐治亞州,美國)正在慶祝阿拉巴馬州一個采礦項目的結束,因為煤礦工人已被買斷,運營已正式停止。在保護基金會(The Conservation Fund, LLC)、詹姆斯·M·考克斯基金會(James M. Cox Foundation)、堅毅集體(Holdfast Collective,Patagonia旗下)以及所有佐治亞州和佛羅里達州的護水者的支持下,這家總部位于阿拉巴馬州的礦業公司終止了可能造成重大環境破壞的計劃。2023年,Nutrien公司更新了其在佛羅里達州漢密爾頓縣(Hamilton County)的磷酸鹽采礦許可,打算在該地點十年內結束運營。然而,磷酸鹽礦藏向北延伸得更遠。作為回應,多個縣市已通過決議,敦促州政府保護整個奧克弗諾基沼澤(Okefenokee Swamp)、圣瑪麗斯河以及佐治亞州南部所有的黑水河(blackwater rivers)。專門負責收購高危土地的非營利組織保護基金會宣布,已購買了奧克弗諾基沼澤附近的土地,這正是阿拉巴馬州公司最初計劃開采的區域。這項收購立即叫停了一個科學家和環保主義者擔心可能對北美最大的黑水沼澤之一造成廣泛破壞的項目。
孟加拉國護水者與波蘇爾河護水者(孟加拉國)為紀念2025年世界自然保護日和世界老虎日組織了活動。第一場活動在達卡的沙莫利公園(Shamoli Park)舉行,旨在宣傳保護自然的團結信息,推動國家保護運動,并激發對環境問題更深入的認識。發言者強調,恢復河流和自然生態系統可以極大地造福社區。參與者舉著橫幅和標語牌,強調這一日子的重要性并突出了環境保護的必要性。第二場活動在蒙格拉烏帕齊拉禮堂(Mongla Upazila Auditorium)舉行,舉辦了一場名為“拯救孫德爾本斯(Sundarbans),拯救老虎”的宣傳活動。活動包括討論會、藝術比賽和集會等環節。發言者強調了保護老虎的重要性,并指出在過去25年中,已有30只老虎死亡——10只死于自然原因,14只死于與當地人的沖突。老虎不僅面臨人類的威脅,還因受污染的水源導致的疾病而受苦,這凸顯了當局迫切需要解決有毒捕魚行為并防止非法老虎販運的緊迫性。

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT
Atchafalaya Basinkeeper (Louisiana, U.S.) recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the New Orleans District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (MVN) to promote responsible environmental stewardship and the sustainable use of vital natural resources. In this agreement, MVN commits to meeting with Atchafalaya Basinkeeper quarterly and sharing publicly releasable information through appropriate channels. The goal is to better manage the Basin ecosystem, which local wildlife and stakeholders depend on. In return, Atchafalaya Basinkeeper agrees to provide accurate information to community stakeholders regarding MVN programs and proposed projects within the Atchafalaya Basin.
Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association (Pennsylvania, U.S.) has recently filed a lawsuit against a York County scrapyard, alleging violations of federal and state clean water laws. The association hopes this legal action will encourage the scrapyard to return to compliance. The lawsuit claims that J&K Salvage is responsible for unauthorized and excessive pollution due to improper handling of solid waste. According to the Riverkeeper Association, J&K Salvage has been discharging pollutants into waterways without a permit since the end of 2024. After three years of sampling the discharge from the scrapyard's pipes, the association found unauthorized pollutants and contamination of nearby wetlands. The contaminants identified include metals and toxic chemicals, such as PFAs, which can harm both water quality and human health.
Satilla Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) celebrates as the construction of a proposed commercial poultry facility along the banks of the Satilla River has been temporarily halted. A group of residents in Coffee County filed a lawsuit in Superior Court seeking an injunction to stop the continued construction and operation of the commercial chicken farm. This proposed facility would be the largest chicken farm east of the Mississippi River, capable of holding up to three million birds at a time. It is planned to be built within the 50- and 100-year floodplains of the Satilla River. Residents are concerned about the facility's proximity to their properties, agricultural land, and business locations, as well as its potential impact on their health. While this temporary injunction prevents construction, it does not halt the planning and preparation for the facility. The court filing also notes that a large poultry farm could produce excessive amounts of phosphorus. Residents fear that the facility would lead to negative health effects, environmental issues, decreased property values, and the risk of bird flu outbreaks.
Suwannee Riverkeeper and St. Mary’s Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) are celebrating the conclusion of a mining project?in Alabama, as coal miners have been bought out and operations are officially halted. With the support of The Conservation Fund, LLC, the James M. Cox Foundation, the Holdfast Collective (Patagonia), and all the Waterkeepers of Georgia and Florida, the Alabama-based mining company has ended plans that could have caused significant environmental damage. In 2023, Nutrien renewed its phosphate mining permit in Hamilton County, Florida, intending to conclude operations at that site within ten years. However, phosphate deposits extend further north. In response, various counties and cities have passed resolutions urging the state to protect the entire Okefenokee Swamp, St. Mary’s River and all the blackwater rivers of South Georgia. The Conservation Fund, a nonprofit organization specializing in acquiring at-risk lands, announced the purchase of property near the Okefenokee Swamp, where the Alabama-based company originally planned to mine. This acquisition immediately halted a project that scientists and environmentalists feared could have caused extensive damage to one of North America's largest blackwater swamps.
Waterkeepers Bangladesh and Poshur River Waterkeeper (Bangladesh) organized events in honor of World Nature Conservation Day 2025 and World Tiger Day. The first event, held at Shamoli Park in Dhaka, aimed to promote a message of unity in protecting nature, advance the national conservation movement, and inspire greater awareness of environmental issues. Speakers emphasized that restoring rivers and natural ecosystems can significantly benefit the community. Participants carried banners and placards underscoring the significance of the day and highlighting the need for environmental protection. The second event took place at the Mongla Upazila Auditorium and featured an awareness program titled “Save the Sundarbans, Save the Tigers.” This event included activities such as discussion sessions, an art competition, and a rally. Speakers stressed the importance of tiger conservation, noting that over the past 25 years, 30 tigers have died—10 from natural causes and 14 due to conflicts with locals. Tigers are not only facing threats from humans but are also suffering from diseases caused by poisoned water, highlighting the urgent need for authorities to address toxic fishing practices and prevent illegal tiger trafficking.
