He already has 3 or 4 groups together for the May cleanup weekend. This is what he has done so far:

"We just voted the river we will work on, and it is the Itapetininga (the first one we paddled together many years ago). There are some hotels along it that we will contact for support, as well as the county mayors and industries. Let´S see what we get in the next months.... One member of the group is one of the owners of the largest newspaper in Brazil, so I guess we may get some real coverage!!! Then we have the guys from universities that paddle with us..... They may get some coverage too. The second one will be easier to put together, then we can start school visits or similars....
