Asked at Salmon Creek Regional Park on April 25, 2011
Jeff Wittler (Clark Public Utilities in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
About 15 years ago, CPUD decided to do ground work to improve stream quality. In the end, the most important thing is connections. A certain number of these will spark a passion.
Maika Horjus/Warren Neth (Urban Abundance in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
We're a food security program. We work on promoting urban agriculture in the area.
Carol Chandler (U.S. Forest Service in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
Especially in the world of invasive species, the more people know, it's just another set of eyes and ears.
Bianca Streif (Salmon Creek Watershed Council in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
We're all about engaging the community in stream restoration. The primary goal of the watershed council is to bring back salmon.
Eric Lambert (Watershed Stewards in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
We're here to educate the community on how they can improve watershed quality.
Kerry Crow (Sierra Club in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
It's a really good way to connect with other groups and reach out to people who might be interested in joining.
Amy Sandborn (Rotaract, Heritage High School in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
We are interested in helping the environment. We just pulled weeds, and it was very fulfilling.
Oso Martin (Empower Up in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
We're taking in computer parts for people and getting stuff back out at a low cost.
Melissa Tiefenthaler (Emriver River Process Simulators in StreamTeam Earth Day) says...
We can show why it's important to plant trees. The stream table shows a lot of erosion. When we do restoration, it helps protect our own drinking water.
