Become part of the Stream Team. River Watch is a joint program the Colorado Watershed Network opperates with the Colorado Division of Wildlife. We work with schools, watershed groups, and dedicated citizens to gather water quality data throughout the state.
We are the largest statewide water quality volunteer monitoring program in the country, collecting more data than Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming have combined. We are the only statewide volunteer monitoring group in the country whose data is used for regulatory purposes. The data our volunteers collect and we analyze is used regularly by Colorado's Water Quality Control Division to determine whether a stream is impaired or healthy.
Although we continue to generate data, we still have many places that need sampling, and we need your help. This involves a Stream Team or indvidual volunteer sampling and collecting field data monthly for a minumum of a year.

Interests: Horseback riding, watching the silence of the snow, obviously anything creative, cooking
Inspiration: Like most of you, when I heard of recycling to save the earth, I naturally assumed I needed to separate my plastics, newspapers and glass. I was helping. That was all I needed to do. Then one day, I was searching around for something fun, some art, and I came across this abstract piece. It was gorgeous - it looked like a naturally formed wave of icy white water bursting into the air. When I looked closer at it, I saw that it was made from recycled plastic caps. I was in shock. What kind of imagination and talent does that take to look at a plastic cap and see more to it then what it actually is? How can someone be so ingenious that they can take something that we normally throw away and create such a piece of beauty with it? This is the thought process that I could not stop pondering and it took over my mind, body and soul and soon enough became my muse.
I began Earth's Journey for this reason. I wanted to show the world that there was more to saving the earth than just recycling. There is beauty in things we can't even imagine, and so many ways to help our planet flourish. There are products out there that we all could use to completely decorate, furnish and run a home... all environmentally safe. You can buy organic bedding, non-toxic cleaning detergents, solar power, or make a change in a small way by using energy-efficient light bulbs. But the best part of recycling and being eco-friendly is the beauty that you'll find here, with all of our different artisans. As you can see I'm very passionate about this type of artistic creativity, and I hope you will be too.
I invite you to sit back, relax and ... Be Inspired by Green!
