We, in this part of the world, love our Great Lakes.
Many of us enjoy spending a day on the water. However, over the years we have seen the impact municipal sewage and the use of nutrients in agriculture can have on algae growth in the lakes, including Lake Erie. Have you noticed green rocks on shorelines or brown water running in streams?
Strides have been made in the battle through the activity of great programs, ranging from Ducks Unlimited to ALUS (Alternative Land Use Services), to government programs like LEADS (Lake Erie Agriculture Demonstrating Sustainability). I have been involved in ALUS since its inception in Norfolk County, seeing the value for clean air and water, and improving wildlife habitat.
