市长弗兰克·杰克逊（Frank Jackson），议员乔·辛珀曼（Joe Cimperman），乔治·甘德基金会（George Gund Foundation）的约翰·米特霍尔泽（John Mitterholzer）和克利夫兰基金会的纳尔逊·贝克福德（Nelson Beckford）发表了开幕词。主题演讲是水库联盟的创始人兼总裁小罗伯特·肯尼迪（Robert F. Kennedy，Jr。）。He is also on the EcoWatch Advisory Board and keeps busy as Senior Attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council, Chief Prosecuting Attorney for the Hudson Riverkeeper, Clinical Professor and Supervising Attorney at Pace University School of Law’s Environmental Litigation Clinic and co-host of Ring of Fire on Air America Radio.

肯尼迪先生列举了许多时事和新闻项目，这些事件不仅影响了我们的环境，而且影响了整个社会。He specifically focused on water, and had this to say prior to his speech: “The current assault on America’s environmental laws, like the Clean Water Act, creates a pressing need to educate and engage people to protect our infrastructure, the air we breathe, the water we drink, to provide our children the same opportunities for dignity and enrichment as our parents gave us. This website encourages people to be a part of the solution and engage in democracy.”
