Love the Everglades Movement is about taking action.  Join us!

The Florida Everglades is YOUR treasure and it's up to YOU to do your part to make sure it gets taken care for this and future generations.  Here you'll find suggestions for action listed below.  Please take time to voice your concerns to our public representatives that were voted into office to take care of such public matters.





    The first thing you can do is start by giving the Water the Love and Respect it deserves!  We do that thru Appreciation and Being Mindful of the vital role Water plays in our lives.



  • No ROGG, so-called "River Of Grass Greenway".  Comments due June 30, 2017.
  • Floridians Clean Water Declaration
  • Native & Endangerd Plants
  • Contact Public Representatives


NO ROGG -- SO-CALLED "RIVER OF GRASS GREENWAY"
    This is about cultivating coalitions to curtail the efforts to construct a paved, 76-mile bike path parallel to the Tamiami Trail from eastern Naples to West Miami.  This particular campaign is being organized by Bobby C. Billie, Council of the Original Miccosukee Simanolee Nation Aboriginal Peoples, and we are honored to assist and participate in their initiative.  Although the campaign has enjoyed some successes, there's still a persistent effort to keep this project alive under various guises.

We have until June 30, 2017 to get comments to Christine.Small@dep.state.fl.us in Tallahassee to strongly oppose the State producing a Florida Greenways and Trails Opportunity and Priorities map containing the pathway of ROGG

Note: All comments must be received by Friday, June 30 -- this is a firm deadline.

Christine.Small@dep.state.fl.us

Tell them DO NOT INCLUDE THE ROGG PATHWAY on the Florida Greenways & Trails Opportunity & Priorities map.
