George Washington Bridge @ Fort Washington Park, Washington Heights, Manhattan, NYCThe Hudson River gets a lot of tourism because of its history  An explorer named Henry Hudson was on a voyage to this continent and he discovered the Hudson River. Henry was the first European sailor to the discover the Hudson, which is where the Hudson River got its name. The Hudson River had been very useful to sailors because they used it for navigation. The Hudson River is 315 miles long and the deepest part is near West Point which is 216 ft deep, which is also the deepest part of the Hudson river.

The Hudson River runs through the Adirondack mountains and into upstate New York. It also goes through the New York harbor, and down until the empty parts in the Atlantic. The Hudson River flows south, but in some parts is flows both ways and meets in the mouth of the river in New York city

Something that intrigues me about the Hudson is that there is so much in the Hudson to be explored, and maybe I could be the one to explore it. The history in the Hudson is so wonderful because of the sites we can see from the walkway. So let’s go explore it!

People enjoy visiting the river because of all the beautiful fish in it. Unfortunately, most of the fish in the Hudson River are getting sick because of pollution, which is not healthy for them. People think they can throw whatever they want in the Hudson River which is not right. But they’re wrong. We should stand up for this right. Anytime you see a piece of trash anywhere you should pick it up because it will make you and our environment feel good.

Also, something you could do is when you drink a bottle of water and there is some left do not throw that water out, as that water could save a lot of fish. All animals should be treated nicely. Animals have just as much right as we have to be here. I know you wouldn’t like it if someone threw trash at you so don’t do it to the fish. Even if you don’t like fish don’t hurt them because they live on one part of the land and you live on the other.

Many people get their drinking water from the Hudson River, so let’s stop pollution and fight to save the Hudson and drinking water. So remember to keep all the rivers, streams ocean etc clean. Because with your help we can save the Hudson, but not only the Hudson all of the streams and rivers and oceans. Once again let’s fight to keep the Hudson clean.

Don’t forget to comment below and give me some suggestions. Also, I would be more than happy to answer any of them.

  1. Well written Yasmeen.
    There are many rivers of the world that are endangered because of thoughtless human actions.

    There are also many companies trying to deprive us of the right to clean fresh drinking water and instead are making us buy their bottled water.
