America's 10 Most Endangered Rivers

  • 9 years ago
This year’s list of the 10 American rivers that are at the greatest risk has been compiled and released by the American Rivers organization.

The nation’s rivers support the lives of many of Earth’s creatures, including humans, but some are in danger of no longer being able to do so.

This year’s list of the 10 that are at the greatest risk has been compiled and released by the American Rivers organization, and once again the Colorado figures prominently in it.

Ranked at number one, the section of it that flows through the Grand Canyon is considered to be in particular peril due to a development project and nearby uranium mining.
