Audubon Florida: Water for the Environment

Eric Draper, Eric Draper, Audubon Florida Executive Director        

With all the discussion about water this year I want to take a minute of your time to call attention to the considerable effort that the Audubon family is putting into water policy and protecting specific waterways. I have asked our staff to compile a short list of priority efforts – please see the attached document. This is in addition to everything that local Audubon organizations are doing and the products of coalitions we are in such as the Florida Conservation Coalition, the Florida Forever Coalition, and the Everglades Coalition.

Also in this document you will find our water policy declaration as it was approved at the 2013 Audubon Assembly.  Each year our chapter leaders set and the board approves our priority workplan. Please feel free to share these materials at your next chapter meeting or community gathering.

The document can be found on our website: http://fl.audubon.org/sites/default/files/documents/audubon_waterforthe_environment_december2013_0.pdf
