Environmental Issues

DEADWATER TO DELTA a raft trip down the most polluted river in all of Mexico

A few years back we donated some paco pads to a group of rafters who wanted to draw attention to the most polluted river in Mexico, and possibly what could happen there if the government cleaned it up. Remember we live in a country that is not without its problems. The Cuyahoga River in Cleveland caught on fire in 1969. This started the clean water act. They catch fish there today, and do canoe trips where the blaze happened.

The Trip down the Rio Santiago in Mexico could be one of those turning points. With a new president who wants to stop rampant pollution, and give his people a better life. Let's hope something happens. By the way if you google Rio Santiago, you will see a lot of Mexican activism. they are not sitting on their hands. They are really trying to get something done.
