Capitol Connection | How We Protect Our Coasts From Rising Waters
The Great Lakes region's fluctuation in water levels is at its most extreme point in recorded history, largely thanks to climate change. Parks are being eaten away. Lakeshore houses are falling. And ecosystems face devastation if they cannot adapt to a more watery existence.
Now, as Michigan governments large and small work to protect their communities and natural areas, two leaders in surface water studies come with recommendations of their own: Jennifer McKay, policy director for member group Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council and MEC board chair, and Tom Zimnicki, surface water program director for MEC
Join them and MEC President/CEO Conan Smith as they discuss best practices residents, developers and local and state governments can take to make high water a lower threat.
Sponsored by Steve and Judy Dobson.
The Capitol Connection webinar series is generously sponsored by Steve and Judy Dobson.
