Invasive Water Chestnut Removal

The non-native plant Water Chestnut is invading our local waterways, and is aggressively displacing many native plants and fish species.  Without immediate action Water Chestnut threatens to spread exponentially throughout the Great Lakes and its tributaries – further devastating our vulnerable ecosystem.  To volunteer for Water Chestnut removal, and to learn more about other Riverkeeper events click here.

Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill

Waterkeepers along the Gulf Coast are preparing to respond to the massive oil spill.  These nonprofit groups will be on the front line when the oil comes ashore and impacts their coastal communities, highly productive commercial fishing industries, and sensitive environmental areas.  If you are interested in donating to Gulf Coast Waterkeepers, please visit www.waterkeepers.org and select the gift designation for Gulf Disaster Relief.  For current updates from BP and the Coast Guard, visit www.deepwaterhorizonresponse.com. To request volunteer information, please call 1-866-448-5816.  

RIVERKEEPER leads Buffalo Niagara’s efforts to safeguard our water for present and future generations.
