Save the Coquitlam River  SCR

Ok people, as many of you probably already know, the Coquitlam River has been ranked the 6th most endangered river in British Columbia, again!! 
 
Like every other year the problem revolves around gravel mining, and more specifically, the huge amounts of sediment that these companies are dumping into the river on a continuous basis.
 
It is very important that our elected officials know that the public, who they represent, are fed up with gravel companies who dump their pollution into the Coquitlam River. 
 
Visit www.savecoquitlamriver.com and go to the TAKE ACTION page where you will find instructions on what you can do to protect this great River.
 
 
What's New
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Visit the Pictures page and witness first hand the environmentally destructive pollution that is being dumped into the Coquitlam River by gravel companies.
 
Tell others about www.savecoquitlamriver.com and pass this e-mail on to as many people as possible. 
 
Change will only come about if people force the government to take action.
 
 
Stay in the Loop
