The Nature Conservancy: Colorado River Program

Join us in celebrating and preserving the beauty and value of the rivers and lakes around Summit County at Blue River Watershed Group's Festival Launch party on September 6th! 💧 Volunteer and make a huge difference in our community by joining BRWG for their annual county-wide river cleanup and volunteer after-party on September 7th.

At last year's clean-up, 160 volunteers removed more than 1500 lbs of trash, and we hope to remove even more this year! 🌱 Learn more and register to volunteer at https://www.blueriverwatershed.org/blue-river-festival.html.

Arizona is one of the largest and most biodiverse states in the U.S., which creates unique conservation challenges and opportunities—both in its arid, wide-open landscapes and densely populated urban centers. 🌵

In this new podcast episode of Mountain & Prairie, The Nature Conservancy in Arizona State Director Daniel Stellar joins host Ed Roberson to discuss forest heath, rivers, aquifers, outdoor recreation and resilient cities.
