I pledge to Defend Rivers.


• BECAUSE Clean Water is a basic right of all people, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE Alabama is the River State, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE over half of Alabamians get their drinking water from rivers, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE Alabama has more freshwater plant and animal species that any other state in the country, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE, despite our abundant biodiversity, Alabama has one of the highest rates of extinction of any place in the country, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE I value the ability to fish, boat, and swim in clean water, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE Pollution is harmful to me, my family, and my community, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE our government must be held accountable for protecting our water, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE enforcement of our water laws is currently not good enough, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE Alabama deserves sustainable planning that ensures our rivers will flow for our children and grandchildren, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE the waters of this state belong to all the people of this state, I will Defend Rivers.

• BECAUSE Water is Life, I will Defend Rivers.


By signing this pledge, I agree to Defend Rivers however possible through my actions at home, at work, and in my community.
