Tell The Department Of The Interior To Restore Water To The Everglades

I pledge to...

Within the next few weeks, the U.S. Government will decide whether or not to restore the natural flow of water to Everglades National Park.&nbsp;<br /><br />In 1928, a road called Tamiami Trail choked off the Everglades from the water it needs to survive. More than 80 years later, the National Park Service is about to finalize a plan to elevate the road that has done so much damage. But opponents threaten to drastically limit or totally derail a plan to let the water flow.<br /><br /><a href='https://secure2.convio.net/sierra/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&amp;page=UserAction&amp;id=3115'>Ask Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar to restore natural water flow to America's Everglades by elevating more than 10 miles of a road blocking it.</a><br /><br />Cut off from its main water source, Everglades National Park is literally drying up. Scientists say the best solution is to elevate a road for more than 10 miles so water can naturally flow into the Park. But opponents are now threatening to reduce the centerpiece plan to little or nothing at all.<br /><br /><a href='https://secure2.convio.net/sierra/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&amp;page=UserAction&amp;id=3115'>Tell Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar to restore water to Everglades National Park by elevating more than 10 miles of road blocking its flow.</a><br /><br />For 81 years, a road has cut off water to the heart of America's Everglades.

With your help and that of supporters around the world, the Everglades could be reconnected and the water could flow again.<br /><br /><br />Within the next few weeks, the U.S. Government will decide whether or not to restore the natural flow of water to Everglades National Park. <br /><br />In 1928, a road called Tamiami Trail choked off the Everglades from the water it needs to survive.
