Don't listen to this bot. They know nothing about the river. Throughout history, the river has been subject to massive variation. We have been navigating the river since Fulton invented the steamboat. Currently, the gauge at Baton Rouge is 32 feet. 20 feet more than last year. Its not expected to drop below 28 feet until June 22nd. It is a natural cycle.
Its not dying. The truth of the matter is the rivers and streams that form the Headwaters of the Mississippi, well there was this thing called a Drought, this past winter. Not much snow fell. Even in Yellowstone National Park, Not a lot of snow. So with out all the snow, and so far very little rain. Of course the river is going to run low, and this is not the first time, that I know of, that its happened. Do some research before you go off Half Cocked.
i tried to take my sailboat down from Ft Madison and got as far as MO. the locks and dams were just too dangerous. the rocks placed along the banks made overnighting a problem. i destroyed part of my centerboard on them. once i grounded on a sand bar and had to get out of the boat to push it off. i had sores on my body for days. the only fish were channel and flathead cats and carp. many of the farmers i talked with said the tributaries were rising on their lands, permanently over a period of years. all this was enough to sour me on the river. iowa factory farms dump tons of waste into the river via tributaries. corn and soy are genetically modified to tolerate certain chems which creates dead zones on land where they are used. we are losing our resilient land. small farms are being killed off and replaced by big business. unhealthy food is being produced and cruelty to farm animals is common. i think mother nature needs to just wash it all away. poor caretakers of the land should not be farming. but really this all comes down to the consumer allowing such to happen.

@@Michael0663-qo4wx Nah nature always wins, even if it means it has to go extreme and wipe out the current major life forms on the planet before resetting itself.
Actually Nature's just fine, and so is the Mississippi River. I don't know why it is that weirdo leftists refuse to understand the cyclic nature of our world.
Looks to me a good fix to one major issue would be to have farmers along the Mississippi to change what products they farm to rotate through ones helpful for the river without using chemicals.

@@Twotone-ld1fb Yeah but Americans were the pioneers of capitalist exploitation and industrial deforestation under Manifest Destiny. American consumers also produce the most material waste and CO2 emissions per capita than any other country.
@@Michael0663-qo4wx Really, I thought China and India had taken the cake of material waste and CO2 emissions ever since we shipped all our production over seas. Manufacturing is where a good chunk of the worlds pollution comes from. And manufacturers are the real producers of material waste, the consumers just buy it before wasting it. And since China and Indias populations are WAY higher then ours they are much bigger consumer markets. SO I think you need to re-examine your fact sheet. As to Americans being pioneers of deforestation we also learn from our mistakes..... usually. We do a better job now of managing our lands, though we still aren't perfect. Also recycling is a myth. Nearly all plastic recycling was getting shipped to china for them to handle and they handled it by just dumping the majority of it in the ocean.
@@Twotone-ld1fb Yeah America is greatest country on the planet bruh. We know. Even though our culture sucks, everyone is depressed and lonely with mental health issues and mass shootings are a routine occurrence, USA is still better than all of Europe and anywhere else right? Yeah we know. Everybody knows.
Thank you for your presentation and you made some good points. The modern history of the Mississippi can be viewed in three parts. You mention the original first part of levee building spurred by the 1927 floods. This effort created it's own set of problems. The second part was when the US Army Corp of Emener's got the message and started to control water flows with upstream dams, a good example being the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). Now the third part, as you mentioned, is an effort to "re-wild" the river by letting flood water spread into adjacent lowlands.
Immediately and completely remove all man-made interference and objects floating in it. Completely let that crucial river HEAL FROM HUMAN ERROR... Hands OFF!!!!!!
"Over engineered" - well said. Need an even bigger picture approach. Invasion of the Gulf of Mexico when water levels drop by drought or deepening is something that is rarely considered. And, as blipco5 pointed out, why do they call them floodplains? The next time you drive through the basin look for evidence of swampland that has been drained to accommodate agriculture or population growth.
When this video was released a month ago, the Missouri River by Omaha was well above flood stage, too. 👍 We had a very wet late spring-early summer, and lots of rain upstream from us.
Nothing on earth is run or controlled by humans. All this world's "leaders" sold their souls thou. Don't be afraid of leaving this world. Home is on the otherside of the veil.
Live a stone's throw away from the Mississippi. Was up on the levee this morning for a walk. It looked pretty lively to me. Plenty of waterborne traffic.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Mississippi Valley Division announced the drought that plagued the Mississippi River basin since 2022 is officially over. Low water conditions began in the region in September 2022.
So, first Americans screw up the river by trying to "control" it. and now they are "seeding" clouds to Make it Rain and refill the river.?! Absolute geniuses.!.! KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB !
@@appaloosa42 yrs really, I'm speaking of the map shown in the first of the vid that shows the state of Arkansas. I never spoke at all of volume, just geographical placement
Man would have better luck trying to control the weather than the Mississippi. We would be prudent to work on our own adaptability and emulate the wildlife.
I wouldn't say it's dying. It's a very managed system and trying to contain something that dynamic is going to be a problem at the best of times. And a more chaotic climate is not the best of times. We need to step back and look at what the river will allow us to do vs. what we think we want to do. In short, build on the deltas and flood plains and you'll get what you deserve - one way or another.
I've noticed that as well. New Madrid, Missouri is right on the Mississippi River and they had a really bad earthquake some time during the 19th Century.
Whether one agrees or in foggy denial - It’s in the BIBLE - the end is near and even secular history and events prove this. Worry not for this must happen so, HE, YESHUA/JESUS THE MESSIAH SON OF GOD can return. Stay strong with faith over fear, HIS Faith/Truth, no matter what, this too shall pass. ⛓️💥🎯🗺️🎺🦁🐑🛐
I live in SE Minnesota,on the bank of the Mississippi River. Today is 7/5/24 we have substantial flooding for at least 150 miles of the river and its major tributaries. All this is due to rain and is going to affect the flooding of the Missouri river and the St.Louis river and their tributaries. All those down stream need to prepare now!! The upper river is still at the nine foot channel except now due to flooding. If we receive no more rainfall we may not see Normal river levels till fall
Misleading and some incorrect information!! I have lived in Iowa and along the Mississippi River my whole life and my Grandfather Hartzell ran a river barge and Ferry for decades on the Mississippi in the 50's in Iowa our Most fertile fields for growing crops have been covered over with concrete and blacktop to make New business instead of growing crops to feed America,do you know the Mid-West area feeds 90% of our country? And politicians are coveting up the fertile fields to make sure China can buy alot so they can ship the goods back to China since they own the land and crops=cattle on it also!! So Americans get less and less!! And we have 4 times more backwaters along the Mississippi River than we do actual river,the channel is only a few hundred feet wide at its best,but the river and backwater are about a mile wide in alot of places and in Clinton Iowa at Eagle Point Park you can barely see the other side of the river,because it is so wide there..
Some backwater lakes in pool 12 have been dredged, bringing back the game fish. Once again it's worth it to fish them , almost like back in the old days. They've really done a number on that river with their locks and dam system. 😢.
The Army Core of the Engineers has become too fat to do a proper job of maintaining the river. They need to relearn how to work with nature. After fifty years of working in the delta in Louisiana I have noticed the changes over the years.
The point is, why aren’t more Americans interested in understanding and foreseeing any challenges and adverse effects that could hamper future economic progress, agricultural productions and / or community development. Now, America hasn’t always been perfect and, yet, it’s still the greatest country in the world because the American people will work together to create a more perfect and prosperous union through technological innovation, scientific advancement and economic sustainability including increasing environmental simpatico and elevating our quality of life not only for those in the present but also for future generations of American people and their descendants. Isn’t that the point? That’s what truly matters and it’s why America will always be the greatest country.

The map is the first one that includes the Monongahela and Allegheny feeding the Ohio. However the Monongahela is the largest water source for the Mississippi, but the Allegheny is not as navigable as the map shows.
Maybe it’s time for a series of dams with locks for ship travel. The water could at least partially be controlled and there would be less chemicals as they fall in the water onto the river bed if I remember correctly. However, what other problems would this possible solution cause?
Yessir and many of not all of those backwaters have filled in over time. Pool 12 has actuality had dredging operations done to the east bank backwater lakes. In those, the fish specie have made a comeback. It's worth it to fish them once again.
Too bad you didn't discuss the constant raising of the levees by the government to where the bottom of the river is now above sea level and the weight of the sediment is pushing the land and New Orleans down below sea level. New Orleans is a doomed city and not worth the billions of dollars to save. Better to let the Mississippi river change course and move to the west of where it now enters the Gulf of Mexico.
Maybe people try build hydrogen bomb by extracting hydrogen out of water just like china had the same problem to use gas mix hydrogen from water for cooking and soon no more agriculture and drinking water
Somebody don't know what they are talking about until they really study this an stop telling lies. I f the Mississippi was actually going dry then it would be so low here in St. Cloud that a person would not be able to use boats here and would be able to walk across here. One more thing about this river back around the '40s my family was able to walk across the river at the time the river was less than knee deep. In Monticello, Mn.
Gee, I bet if I could come back in a 100 yrs the Miss.basin will still be pretty much as it is now. I'm sick of all of these doomsday video click-gettersn Adios.

outworn municipal
and rural-disoriented abridge-
ments of public assembly by libertarian and false Christian mythology;
2 Messing with the sanity of people by
jurisdictional irrelevancy and chronological inadmissibility in Daylight Saving Time;
3 Social discord bases of age
discrimination challenged as
discrimination against racial minorities or women of all races but not all ages, which
prevents good will for common defense
expressed in the cynical misinterpre-
tation of the Second Amendment as
not related to the pretext of the First Amendment, thus in
turn either the
constant contempt
from abandonment of domestic tranquility, or religious sneering
indifference to pre-sumptuous boasting of works by heretics
who have no acceptance of
unacceptable serenity through
foreign tranquility by peace that means nothing and is uninviting to the

Simply,
1 The rise of illegitimate argument of States’ rights to reserved power to squelch the most basic of
governmental just functions and public authorities to offshoots of acquiescence to
corporate tyranny by a new-age feudalism, exacerbated by
outworn municipal
and rural-disoriented abridge-
ments of public assembly by libertarian and false Christian mythology;
2 Messing with the sanity of people by
jurisdictional irrelevancy and chronological inadmissibility in Daylight Saving Time;
3 Social discord bases of age
discrimination challenged as
discrimination against racial minorities or women of all races but not all ages, which
prevents good will for common defense
expressed in the cynical misinterpre-
tation of the Second Amendment as
not related to the pretext of the First Amendment, thus in
turn either the
constant contempt
from abandonment of domestic tranquility, or religious sneering
indifference to pre-sumptuous boasting of works by heretics
who have no acceptance of
unacceptable serenity through
foreign tranquility by peace that means nothing and is uninviting to the
multitudes to ignore their daily bread in exchange for social
media reels which
do not go with tartar sauce;
4 A loss of real sincerity of allegiance to the
nation as allegiance

necessary to pursuit

Yeah farmland not the large corporations dumping into water.
The map is the first one that includes the Monongahela and Allegheny feeding the Ohio. However the Monongahela is the largest water source for the Mississippi, but the Allegheny is not as navigable as the map shows.
150 years aho one could walk across the Monongahela in the summer. Now we only worry about too much rain in West Virginia!

Maybe it’s time for a series of dams with locks for ship travel. The water could at least partially be controlled and there would be less chemicals as they fall in the water onto the river bed if I remember correctly. However, what other problems would this possible solution cause?
Why did you leave out the Ohio and Tennessee River?
Unless there's a major drought which is highly unlikely.
The industrial revolution might have played a significant role in climate change.
Yessir and many of not all of those backwaters have filled in over time. Pool 12 has actuality had dredging operations done to the east bank backwater lakes. In those, the fish specie have made a comeback. It's worth it to fish them once again.
Going by their map i was confused as hell
This wouldn’t have anything to do with the poison they are spraying in the atmosphere would it?
Too bad you didn't discuss the constant raising of the levees by the government to where the bottom of the river is now above sea level and the weight of the sediment is pushing the land and New Orleans down below sea level. New Orleans is a doomed city and not worth the billions of dollars to save. Better to let the Mississippi river change course and move to the west of where it now enters the Gulf of Mexico.
Total bs.
I live at the river delta, this is bull, the river is high right now...as it should be
The world is millions years old !!! My gosh. This is all trash talk NOT EVERY DAY IS PERFECT
Maybe we will continue to come out of this dry pattern that we’ve been in for the last 18 months. We’ll see you at August 2024 brings.
When Mount Aconcagua explodes, the tsunami will revive the Mississippi River and then some.
Maybe people try build hydrogen bomb by extracting hydrogen out of water just like china had the same problem to use gas mix hydrogen from water for cooking and soon no more agriculture and drinking water
Never ending *FEAR MONGERING.*
What is your motivation for this dishonesty?
Ooooh... I'm ascared!
And when California goes into the ocean what's going to happen to these places
I guess the main takeaway is fck around and find out. There's always consequences to messing with the natural order of things
Well I guess that means all the other lakes and rivers will die also?
IMHO, the Mississippi is a tributary of the Missouri River

Misinformation from woke jounalism. Mississippi has always gone through flood/drought cycles. They are not more extreme.
This has nothing to do with being woke.
Where do you come up with this crap???
WARNING: Robotic Voice Alert and annoying music Too bad. Interesting subject.
Somebody don't know what they are talking about until they really study this an stop telling lies. I f the Mississippi was actually going dry then it would be so low here in St. Cloud that a person would not be able to use boats here and would be able to walk across here. One more thing about this river back around the '40s my family was able to walk across the river at the time the river was less than knee deep. In Monticello, Mn.
bs I have lived by it my whole life it changes all the time it's a fkn river
Just put a dam at the end of the river
The Miss. River is Alive and Well, Cleaner than it has been in Decades, the only problem is that Asian Carp have over-taken the River...
So tired of fake titles to draw people in just to be given a history lesson. Bunch of bull regarding the title.
Load of lies and stuff made up. UA-cam what do you expect.
The sky is falling. This is bs
Man has a way of messing up God's handy work.
Totally wrong!
AGAIN?????
This is false. I live on the😢 Mississippi River it is fine barges are moving every. K ock off that computer vouce!!!!!
This is magnificent ,,, we have rising oceans according to Democrats /// less water is good....
Repetitive! I could only listen for six minutes before I had enough.
Bull schitt
Misinformation,
Gee, I bet if I could come back in a 100 yrs the Miss.basin will still be pretty much as it is now.
I'm sick of all of these doomsday video click-gettersn
Adios.
Clickbait useless video devoid of science and reality.
This is one of the most ignorant collections of empty buzzwords I've come across. Thumbs down, channel added to blacklist.
blah blah blah
Mississippi River is doing fine, bull crap video.
We suck it dry like the Colorado
