I've been working on a personal GIS project dedicated to spots across the United States that should be be conserved, and one of those, is the Altamaha River in Georgia. It's formed at the confluence of the Oconee and Ocumulgee Rivers and flows for 137 miles before discharging into the Atlantic.

It's one of the last free-flowing rivers in the eastern United States and is home to rare and indigenous species like the Franklin tree (Franklinia alatamaha), and over 120 species of rare species found nowhere else, and the gopher tortoise.

Some of the key problems facing this crucial watershed include fertilizer, animal waste, and industrial pollution.

It may fall from the sky, in one form or another, but #industry should be charged for #water fairly like any other natural resource. With the #climatecrisis water will become a increasingly rare #commodity

Water-stressed BC towns want the province to stop 'giving water away' to industry

With little water to spare amid low snowpacks in parts of BC, protecting what has accumulated has become "incredibly important," said Blair Ireland, the mayor of Lake Country, BC. His problem is that protecting those lakes and streams is difficult and expensive.

#watershed #illustration for Silver View Pond in Mound’s View MN. The swale will direct storm water runoff into the water basin. The native plants in the water basin will pull pollutions from the water before it reaches the pond, which eventually leads to the Minnesota River, which eventually leads to more and more bodies of water. Waterways are connected, people!!! But also using all our fresh water to help AI create dumb bullshit is a smart long term idea and will have zero bad ramifications
