He polluted and ravaged the land, exploiting water, one of the essentials of modern day life. Today the Potomac River is often said to have the appearance of ‘Green Latex Paint.’ Water pollution not only disgraces our country, but is a hazard in many ways. On June 22, 1969, the oily surface of the Cuyahoga River which winds its way through in dustrialized Cleveland, Ohio, caught fire. The fire raged across the surface of the water, burning two bridges and threatening many waterfront industries You may say that was long ago.

Even today, after millions of dollars worth of cleanup, the Cuyahoga River looks like a mud flow. Many other rivers that flow throughout our country have a list of pollutants in them that reads like a dictionary. Fertilizers, insecticides, DDT, chemicals, raw sewage, radioactive wastes and oil now grace this nation’s river systems “Many polluted streams and rivers flow into the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes Region of the United States produces 25 per cent of the nation’s Gross National Product, and the surrounding lakes have taken their toll. Industries and huge metropolitan areas border this area, emptying large quantities of pollutants and raw sewage into the lakes. Lake Erie is the worst of the polluted lakes.

In 1972 the United States and Canada made a jomt committment to the cleanup of the Great Lakes. Billions of dollars have been spent to crack down on pollutants, but the United States is cutting back funds with the fight only half over. Past President Lyndon B. Johnson said it best when he said, quote: ‘There is no excuse for a river flowing red with blood from slaughterhouses. There is no excuse for paper mills pouring tons of sulfenc acid into the lakes and streams. There is no excuse for chemical companies and refineries using our major rivers as pipelines for toxic wastes. There is, no excuse for communities to use the people’s rivers as a dump for sewage,’ unquote. We must continue the fight before all waters are polluted. “Eventually all pollutants work their way into the oceans of the world.
