From fishing and heavy industry to recreational waterfronts and new technology, a dizzying array of interest groups are using — and sometimes abusing — our biggest economic asset.
How does water use, access, preservation and pollution shape our region’s economic outlook, and what lessons can we learn from the past to ensure a thriving blue economy in the future?
Join Michigan Public’s Environment Reporter Lester Graham and a panel of experts, for this fast paced discussion about The Blue Economy.
Admission is free, but space is limited, so advance registration is needed. You can attend in person or watch it online.
