World Rivers Day

World Rivers Day is this Sunday and we have Burnaby  native Mark Angelo to thank for this amazing global event. Mark is an internationally known river conservationist who started BC Rivers Day in 1980 and led the proposal to expand the initiative into a world wide celebration which launched in 2005.  World Rivers Day continues to grow with millions of countries  around the world celebrating as well as multiple communities around the lower mainland!  I’ve listed a few below…
