Just because it's not perfect or pristine anymore is no excuse for
letting it go completely to hell. The idea is to preserve what's left.
If you want a river that's so polluted that it catches on fire, go to
Cleveland.
I've never been much of a fan of Ohio in general or Cleveland in
particular (though I did have some fine ol' times years ago in the late
70's when I used to play the Hannah Theatre there) - but - IIRC,
Cleveland should not be used as an example of how to catch a river on
fire, but, rather how to salvage a river from such a condition.
Exactly.
Conservation/preservation/restoration works, or can work if you give it
a chance.
I was hoping a field trip to the Cuyahoga might drive that point home.
