Speaking of Water: in the West we all need to ask

Speaking of Water: in the West we all need to ask for less. Simple.
I’m speaking tomorrow in Delta CO with @coloradocanyons about the importance of the Colorado River, public lands, native voices, storytelling and our challenges (and some successes) with it all.

From my book #chasingwater with @rizzolibooks

Join us. 7 pm. Egyptian Theater

The world is a noisy place, and growing louder. In an effort to escape some noise and hug the quiet, I did a book a few years back called Seeing Silence.
It includes my imagery across seven continents spanning over two decades, that focus on natural sounds away from our mechanized soundscapes.
Most of the most magical moments I describe in the essays, can not be bought online or in a store. They are rare, auditory moments that took patience and persistence — and all happened, ironically, as I was trying to document with the visual tools of the eye.

For those interested in the limited edition, I have a few copies left and prefer they get seen and pondered. From now until Giving Tuesday, signed and unsigned editions are $75 OFF.
Go to my website https://petemcbride.com/seeing-silence-deluxe/ (link in BIO also) and use discount Code: STILLNESS

Grateful for all of you who have supported my work.

Grateful for… friends and family… and those rare moments of awe and wonder we glide into when we least expect it.

The greatest environmental disaster you’ve never heard of.
To the water managers on the Colorado River who are struggling to work together and acknowledge a changing watershed, this is a friendly reminder of what climate change (and over allocation and mismanagement of a river) looks like downstream. We all need to ask for less — if we want to keep any part of this American Nile alive — because these scenes are moving upstream to the top of the watershed where we are all praying for snow… once again.

The Colorado River Delta was the largest desert estuary in North America. It dried up in my lifetime. It feels like I’ve spent a lifetime talking about it and documenting it too.
Yet, it continues to be forgotten, unnoticed, and run dry.

Perhaps we can give some gratitude to our rivers, including the big ol’ Coloradie this Holliday. Find ways to support your local watershed.

For those interested, I have a new book coming out this winter about my time standing up for the river. Check my bio for pre-order options on “Witness to Water”.

Water in the Desert — nothing like it.
I just returned from a soggy and spectacular walkabout inside the Grand Canyon reconnecting with the elements.

What is elemental to me, is that our national parks are one of America’s greatest legacies that everyone can unite around. In a divided world with short attention spans and storms of sound bites, we need our parks more than ever to slow down, seek some silence and once again hug some humility.

Our parks deserve funding and professional staff — not more cuts forcing them to rely on the good will of volunteers.
