“Riparian Areas” refer to the surrounding area of a body of a water, typically containing fertile soil and a desirable environment for crops / wildlife. Many of the ingredients we use, the products of livestock we eat, and such are grown here. Civilizations since the dawn of time have utilized riparian areas, and they will continue to do so for years to come. Organizations have been created and tasked with protecting these areas, as human intervention and climate disaster threaten the fragile but important regions.
