If you are a Baykeeper, a Riverkeeper, or a Soundkeeper, the story of David and Goliath is more than a folktale ­ it's a job description. The Waterkeeper Alliance is the nation's fastest-growing grassroots environmental campaign. A shining model for ecosystem protection, it shows how common people can achieve extraordinary things in defense of their environment. Part investigators, scientists, lawyers, and lobbyists, Keepers have helped to protect hundreds of rivers, bays, lakes, and sounds. The Waterkeepers documents some of those accomplishments, from Alaska to North Carolina. Written and produced by Les Guthman. 2000, USA, 48 min.
