We can all agree that rivers should be blue, not orange.
But scientists now believe that due to rapid climate change, some rivers are now turning bright orange because of melting permafrost which is releasing sulfide minerals like iron into the water and essentially causing them to “rust.”
And this could have disastrous consequences for both humans and other ecosystems that rely on these rivers and streams for clean water.
John, first we had orange skies. Now we have orange rivers. The climate crisis is getting worse every second that we don’t take action.
We cannot allow this to become the new norm. We must fight to turn the tide on climate change and keep our rivers and streams from looking the same color as a pumpkin.
Thanks to your help in 2022, SEEC PAC was able to re-elect over 95% of our pro-environment members to the U.S. House of Representatives — defying the odds on a night where Democrats lost seats. Now we are counting on you to help our SEEC members pass climate, clean energy and environmental justice policies in the 118th Congress while we continue fighting for a sustainable future. But if you'd like to receive fewer emails, we understand. You can click here to only get our most important messages, or you can unsubscribe.
