This summer, join Uncle Pappy as he drives 8,000 miles from LA to the Everglades to document how water is impacting communities across America, and the people already doing something about it.

Follow along, show up at a stop near you, and sign the van. Every signature becomes part of a live petition telling our leaders one thing:

"We are United By Water, and we expect it to be protected."

Uncle Pappy is jumping in water at each stop along his way. Meet him at an event and jump in, or take your own plunge wherever you are.

Film yourself jumping in your favorite creek, fishing your favorite lake or floating on your favorite river.

Tag @unitedbynatureorg and #PappyPlunge and we’ll repost it here.
