SUMMARY:The $188 Billion Question: Can We Fix the Great Lakes Water & Sewer Infrastructure Crisis?
DESCRIPTION:Communities across the Great Lakes region are grappling with crumbling\, antiquated drinking water and wastewater infrastructure. No one should be without clean\, safe\, affordable water in their home. No one should have to worry about sewage backing up into their basement or community flooding that damages property. \n\n\n\nYet paying for water and sewer projects are expensive. It’s estimated that the eight Great Lakes states need $188 billion over the next 20 years to repair and upgrade this critical infrastructure. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a conversation with three experts who can help us understand the scale of this problem and opportunities to equitably tackle water and sewer infrastructure projects at the federal\, state\, and local levels. Our panelists include: \n\n\n\nRebecca Hammer\, Natural Resources Defense CouncilKristy Meyer\, Fresh Water FutureAnthonia Ogudipe\, Alliance for the Great Lakes\n\n\n\nAs usual\, we’ll leave plenty of time for your questions.  \n\n\n\nWatch a recording of the webinar.

SUMMARY:Webinar – From Farm Fields to the Great Lakes: Protecting the Lakes from Agricultural Pollution
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, waterways around the Great Lakes region\, notably western Lake Erie and Green Bay\, suffer from severe algal blooms that threaten drinking water\, recreational opportunities\, and the region’s economy. And\, climate change is just going to make the problem worse. The primary cause? Runoff from agricultural lands. Federal Farm Bill conservation programs are critical to addressing water quality problems caused by agriculture. But these voluntary programs are not enough to prevent this pollution. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a panel conversation about agricultural pollution and the Great Lakes\, and opportunities to improve and create policy programs to prevent this pollution at the federal\, state\, and local levels. We’ll hear from regional and national experts including: \n\n\n\nTodd Brennan\, Alliance for the Great LakesAviva Glaser\, National Wildlife FederationJamie Konopacky\, Environmental Working GroupTom Zimnicki\, Michigan Environmental Council\n\n\n\nWatch a recording of the webinar.
