@jasonjourneyman: Raise your hand if you 💚 soft bottoms! 🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏾🙋🏼‍♀️ Join me 9/18 for a LA River Urban Ecology walk! 💙 There will be fun facts, sunset views, community, and as many puns as I can squeeze in. *link in bio* Soft bottom sections in the LA River provide habitat for all kinds of plant and animal species, including the human species, and are a powerful reminder of what was and what can still be. #lariver #losangeles #lahikes #natureinla #environmentaleducation

Im all for preserving nature, but this overgrowth of vegetation within the canal considerably reduces runoff flow. If left unchecked entire sections of Los Angeles will flood. We build concrete lined sections for a reason

Hmmm a coincidence that the sepulveda basin is surrounded by a lush green park? I think not! Although I’m sure they irrigate it with outside water too

Unfortunately, because of the past floods, and it would just be too expensive to destroy the infrastructure the whole thing will never look like that. But I do love the movement to bring back the beauty of the LA river.

LA should make its own version of the Cheonggycheon river in Seoul

The pics you shared at the end of the “possibilities” is EXACTLY what the river was supposed to look like but the city took the funding for a protected river park and paved the river because they were buddies with real estate companies

there is a good reason that the whole river doesn't look like the forested spots anymore 😅 building in flood planes is silly but we did it anyway

I have a question. I live in South east Los Angeles, and I’m noticing that there is these like greenery. That’s growing like there’s a lot more green spots popping up. Could that possibly when they look like the other places.

This is why the river would have look like its beautiful nature should have been left alone.

LA used to be marshlands , team up with local CA Native tribes in the area to make that happen
