Film NH & MA The Merrimack: River at Risk 4 ECOPHOTOGRAPHY SPRING 2020
Feature-length documentary to be released this summer The Merrimack River is the birthplace of the industrial revolution in America. Factories in cities like Manchester, New Hampshire and Lowell, Massachusetts were the largest textile mills in the world in the 19th century. Like many rivers in America, the Merrimack was heavily polluted by the 1960’s, but due to the Clean Water Act, the Merrimack has been cleaned up considerably since then. Remarkably, more than 80% of the Merrimack watershed is still undeveloped and largely forested, yet in 2016 the river was named one of the most endangered rivers in the US by American Rivers. Since then, I have been working with the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests to produce a film that tells the Merrimack’s story and explains why the river is in trouble today. Almost four years later, we have finished that film – The Merrimack: River at Risk. The pandemic has shuttered our plans for theater screenings for the time being, but I’m proud to announce the film’s broadcast premier will be on July 23rd when it will air on New Hampshire PBS. https://ecophotography.com/a-new-film-the-merrimack-river-at-risk/ SUMMER 2020 ECOPHOTOGRAPHY 5
