Paddle for the Planet finds hope on the Mississippi River

Hi all,

I thought everyone would like to hear how a river can get better! The upper Mississippi River is breeming with bald eagles and the tests we did along the way turned up almost NO nitrates from fertilizer run-off.

The blog post has video and photo slide shows of the four high school juniors that made the amazing 518-mile canoe trip.

Best, andrew

P.S. The tests were done upstream from where the Minnesota River flows into the Mississippi. MN River may be another story altogether...
