Colorado River EARTH DAY Update: River Warrior Chained Himself To A Rock, Dared Feds To Drown Him

Hi Friends of the Colorado River!

Happy EARTH DAY!

Consider beginning your day with this inspiring story of our boardmember, Mark Dubois, who chained himself to a rock in 1979 as the newly dammed waters of the Stanislaus River rose to drown him. 

Mark didn’t drown, and later on became a founder of river-protection organizations, a co-leader of Earth Day, and a “River Saint” to many activists in the global river-protection community. This new film, “The Voice of the River (here on Youtube)“, tells Mark’s story — and lets him tell the story himself because he is still with us!

Enjoy the film, go outside, and have a great Earth Day.
