Beyond Water
August 3rd at 6 PM
Join author & speaker Dean Klinkenberg on Tuesday, August 3rd at 6 PM in the Keokuk Public Library Round Room & be reminded of the true beauty & necessity of our mighty Mississippi. Rivers don’t get enough respect, especially big rivers. We focus so much on the water carried by our rivers, worrying about that water getting too high or too low, that we miss the essence of what makes our big rivers special: the incredible abundance and diversity of life they support. In this talk, Klinkenberg will describe the importance of big rivers in the natural world, and why we need to value them more and manage them differently. He’ll describe what a healthy river looks like and the impressive natural resilience of river ecosystems. He’ll remind us why, as Luna Leopold once said, we need to cultivate a “reverence for rivers.”
