-Thus we see a tremendous increase in the frequency of natural disasters (100 year floods every year, hurricanes of unprecedented size, droughts, etc).  We can also observe crop failures which result in food shortages.  First world countries are largely insulated from the effects of these food shortages, but the impact is very real on poorer countries.  For example, these food shortages are largely responsible for the "Arab Spring."  People in the Middle East have lived under the rule of oppressive regimes for decades.  It was only as a result of food price spikes that social upheaval was unleashed, followed quickly by the fall of governments all over the region (Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen), as well as the civil war in Syria.

-The death of a lake or river is said to occur when it becomes so polluted that it can no longer support life (such as fish, turtles, crustaceans, etc.).  The most famous dead river is probably the Cuyahoga River in Ohio which actually caught on fire many times, helping to spur the environmental movement in the late 1960s.

-In the United States, environmental protection is managed by the government at all levels: local, state, and federal.  It will be much easier to contact local or state officials rather than federal officials.  Check the phone directory under "Environmental Protection" or search the Internet to find contact information for the agency in your area.  If you are having difficulty finding the government body responsible for this in your area, try contacting a local paddling club, [http://www.americancanoe.org/ The American Canoe Association], or [http://www.americanwhitewater.org/ American Whitewater].  These associations have a vested interest in clean rivers and streams (that's their playground!) and often organize river clean-up projects.  They will be able to get you on a project, put you in touch with the most responsive government body, and recommend local businesses that are responsive to environmental conservation. You might also host a CITO event through Geocaching.com  A well organized CITO will attract lots of willing volunteers.
