America’s 10 Most Endangered Rivers 2
America’s 10 Most Endangered Rivers
Each year since 1986, American Rivers has published a list of the 10 most endangered rivers in the country. To select the rivers to list, American Rivers solicits nominations from thousands of river groups, environmental organizations, outdoor clubs, local governments, and taxpayer watchdogs groups.
The report highlights the rivers facing the most uncertain futures rather than those suffering from the worst chronic problems. The report presents alternatives to proposals that would damage rivers, identifies those who make the crucial decisions, and points out opportunities for the public to take action on behalf of each listed river.
Here is the list of the 10 most endangered rivers:
#1: Catawba-Wateree River in North Carolina and South Carolina
#2: Rogue River in Oregon
#3: Poudre River in Colorado
#4: St. Lawrence River in New York and Canada
#5: Minnesota River in Minnesota
#6: St. Johns River in Florida
#7 Gila River in New Mexico and Arizona
#8 Allagash Wilderness Waterway in Maine
#9 Pearl River in Louisiana and Mississippi
#10 Niobrara River in Nebraska
We hope that by raising awareness about this issue, we can help to save the rivers and their valuable ecosystems for future generations to come.

Greetings,
My name is Bill Hawthorne, and I represent maacenter.org, a leading web resource for asbestos exposure and mesothelioma cancer information. Our organization is dedicated to increasing awareness of the terrible health consequences of asbestos exposure through the distribution of the best informational materials and public outreach efforts.
I found your site through a search and decided to contact you because of its high environmental and green presence which is extremely important in our movement. Your viewers are extremely savvy and motivated. The promotion of how buildings should now be built using sustainable green products to avoid asbestos and mesothelioma as well as the awareness of past buildings and preventative steps in avoiding asbestos exposure are extremely important. My goal is to get a resource link on your site/blog or even to provide a guest posting to be placed.
I look forward to hearing from you. Please feel free to check out our website. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Bill Hawthorne
