To Eat or Not To Eat ... NYS says four species (out of 200+) jn the Hudson River are "safe to eat" ... which comes with all sorts of caveats, including who caught the fish and where...

Cantankerous, charismatic and passionately committed, John Lipscomb reflects on his 25 years patrolling the Hudson River, traveling more than 80,000 miles by wooden boat. Lipscomb and his dog patrol the Hudson River, monitoring environmental concerns after decades of industrial damage.

His feature documentaries include ‘Dear President Obama,’ ‘Antarctica, on the Edge,’ ‘After the Spill’ and ‘Ghost Fleet.’ His National Geographic-sponsored Oceans 8 project took him and his teams around the world by sea kayak over the course of ten years (1999-2008), bringing back stories from the Aleutian Islands to French Polynesia, Gabon to Tasmania, and more, reporting on how the planet’s one ocean and its various coastlines are faring in today’s busy world. He is the President of the One Ocean Media Foundation, Chairman of the Advisory Board of Adventure Science and Creative Affiliate of The Safina Center.

Defending America’s First River

Cantankerous, charismatic and passionately committed, this river keeper — John Lipscomb — reflects on his 25 years patrolling the Hudson River, traveling more than 80,000 miles, by wooden boat.
Like rivers around the world, the Hudson — America’s First River and the Birthplace of the American Environmental Movement — boomed as a growing human population used it for transportation, sustenance and for many years a dumping ground.

The river paid a price for all this use and abuse, struggling against its share of contamination. For the past nearly three decades the river’s poet laureate and literal “eyes on the river,” Captain John, has been at the forefront of each of those fights, taking on industrial and human pollution, suffering the losses and celebrating victories.

While he has had successes on the Hudson, committing a life to protecting a river is a never-ending fight. Today he is one of more than 300 “keepers” around the globe, looking out for their respective rivers.
