The Haw River Assembly

I've grew up in Alamance County which is based around the Haw River.
Went to Bynum yesterday with some friends and did a hike led by Elaine with the Haw River Assembly.
We walked along the banks of the Haw on land which had been purchased so that we could enjoy what is there.
We were educated as to the continuing pollution of the Haw and surrounding ground waters in North Carolina.
It seems that local governments just don't seem to care about what God gave us and insist on further polluting and destroying this earth. We must take care of our resources. The first step is to educate. The next step is that don't let people spoil what we really need; our water.

I've always enjoyed the outdoors and hope that we can educate and preserve what resources we have.
I'll probably do another walk this week at Stone Mountain, NC.

Cheers, John

  2. You can read my blog about the contamination, I also submitted it to a local newspaper with Elaine's blessing. Let's raise some hell about this!
