保護行動動態

布法羅 - 尼亞加拉護水者（美國紐約州） 近期接受 WKBW 電視臺采訪，探討追蹤本地水道含鹽排放物的重要性。恰逢紐約州環境保護部發起 “紐約，別太‘咸’”（Don’t Be Salty, New York）宣傳活動，呼吁居民避免過量使用巖鹽。活動指出，一茶匙鹽就能污染 5 加侖飲用水，并提醒公眾：冬季道路融雪鹽常造成水道污染，威脅飲用水供應安全。該組織相關人士表示，3 月道路撒鹽后，監測到水體氯化物含量顯著升高，強調今年冬季每個人都應注意控制用鹽量。

卡盧薩護水者（美國佛羅里達州） 敦促邁爾斯堡市迅速采取行動。此前檢測發現，曼努埃爾溪（Manuel’s Branch）存在持續的人類糞便污染，90% 至 200% 的檢測時段內，水道糞便細菌含量超標。污染源追蹤證實，這條貫穿邁爾斯堡市中心的休閑水道中存在人類排泄物。該組織警告居民，接觸受污染水體可能面臨重大公共健康風險。

哥倫比亞河護水者（美國俄勒岡州） 近期發布報告，對哥倫比亞河沿岸擬新建的一座可再生柴油廠提出質疑，認為其可能無法助力俄勒岡州實現減排目標。該組織律師奧黛麗?倫納德（Audrey Leonard）表示，該工廠超過 90% 的原料將來自大豆、油菜等低碳足跡較低的作物，而非公司宣傳的低碳廢油。事實上，餐飲廢油等真正可持續的原料供應有限且價格更高，這在很大程度上是受加利福尼亞州等大型市場需求影響。目前，哥倫比亞河護水者正在法庭上對該工廠的兩項許可提出異議。

安大略湖護水者（加拿大） 負責人馬克?馬特森（Mark Mattson）在其 Substack 專欄最新文章中，探討了水資源保護的迫切性。在加拿大倡導健康水道多年后，馬特森始終圍繞核心問題展開思考：“水資源為何需要你的保護？” 這篇深度文章匯聚了他對水資源的洞察、發現與個人經歷，值得深入閱讀。

恭喜邁阿密護水者（美國佛羅里達州） 獲得?？怂箿氐禄饡‵oxwynd Foundation）近 1.55 萬美元的配比贈款！這筆資金將使該組織 “清潔水源，繁榮棲息地：志愿者修復項目” 的每筆捐款影響力翻倍，用于擴大海岸棲息地修復和海洋垃圾清理活動，動員數百名社區志愿者保護比斯坎灣的關鍵生態系統。借助這些資源，社區成員將獲得更多機會修復南佛羅里達州的原生生態系統 —— 這些區域因交通不便往往被忽視。邁阿密護水者、福克斯溫德基金會與社區居民將攜手合作，培育更健康的棲息地，減少海洋垃圾，為野生動物和居民打造更具韌性的海灣環境。

山境聯盟（MountainTrue，美國北卡羅來納州） 正舉辦 “非洲清潔水源” 慈善拍賣活動，為烏干達和肯尼亞的護水者合作伙伴提供支持。該聯盟是布羅德河護水者、弗倫奇布羅德河護水者、格林河護水者、瓦托加河護水者及上紐河護水者的母體機構。拍賣所得將 100% 直接用于為非洲缺水社區建造水井和安裝濾水器，每 1 美元都能為最需要的人帶去清潔水源。拍賣品豐富多樣，涵蓋皮劃艇、高空滑索體驗、樹屋住宿、湖邊小屋休閑套餐、野外生存探險、牧場之旅、高爾夫度假、國際旅行、精美藝術品，甚至一頭奶牛！歡迎參與競價并幫忙宣傳，讓這些改變生活的項目惠及更多人！

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!
