Keepers are a organization of people to look after your water. To make sure your water is clean. They are not run by the government. So that they can pick and there battles against big corporate America with out someone saying they get donation from them. He is a little bit about the keepers. This came from http://www.indianriverkeeper.org. And explains everything.

The mission of the Indian Riverkeeper is to protect and restore the waters of North America's most diverse estuary-- the Indian River Lagoon, its tributaries, fisheries and habitats through advocacy, enforcement and citizen action. The original Riverkeeper was born from the pollution in New York’s Hudson River, where a group of environmentalists, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. banded together to clean up the waterway.

• In 1983, environmentalist John Cronin was tapped to become the official Hudson watchdog known as the Riverkeeper.

• The effort spawned other Riverkeeper organizations across the world.

• Those Riverkeepers, about 183 so far, are supported by an umbrella group know as The Waterkeeper Alliance.

• Together, the groups fight to stop pollution.

The Indian River Lagoon — the most biologically diverse estuary in North America — straddles 156 miles of Florida’s east coast, from Ponce Inlet in Volusia County, south to Jupiter Inlet in Palm Beach County. It is a salt water "tidal lagoon". It is the body of water within this geographical area between the mainland and the barrier island and that which the Indian Riverkeeper strives to help protect for future generations.
