Echoes of Cry of the Marsh explores the issue of wetland restoration through the eyes of Bob Hartkopf, an ecologist and educator who has worked more than 40 years to revive these environmental assets.
Wetland restoration affects all people living in areas with industrial-scale agriculture, particularly in the upper Midwest and along the Mississippi River.
Hartkopf’s work and stuggle reminds us that we can find a healthy balance for our land, that we can strengthen our ecosystem, and that working for environmental change is possible.

Bob says what I’d …
Bob says what I’d say in the situation. Progress is good, but we NEED diversity. I live in a big city now, but I need some country and wetlands. Nothing as interesting. I am lucky to live in Philly, and 2 mi from a huge park with 4 lakes, two large and 2 small plus a golf course. Not far from it is John Heinz/Tinicum Federal Wildlife Preserve that has a 200 acre marsh with easy access, and Much more wetland connected. Both are great escapes from a big city.
