HEAL Utah is pleased to announce that University of Utah professor Dan McCool will be our 2012 Fall Party Keynote Speaker. Professor Dan McCool, the author of the new book River Republic: The Fall and Rise of America's Rivers, will speak about the power of committed and feisty grassroots groups to protect the West's precious rivers. Utah's most threatened river, the Green River, presents a dramatic and tense tale of energy development, water scarcity, a false nuclear renaissance and the scrappy organizations and committed volunteers working to preserve it.
