Protect the Great Lakes Environment Like a National Park‏

The Great Lakes and their surrounding environment are one of the most breathtaking natural areas in the world and are home to lush forests and wildlife like the gray wolf, Canada lynx, moose and bald eagle. Unfortunately, decades of mismanagement and industrial overuse have left our Great Lakes in trouble. Support protection of the Great Lakes environment. » We can protect the Great Lakes Basin by enshrining that area as part of the Commons, a Public Trust and a Protected Bioregion — similar to how we protect national parks. This will help relieve some of the Great Lakes area’s threats, including: – falling water levels from over-extraction – devastating levels of pollution – increasing loss of wetland – storage of radioactive waste too close to the watershed Speak up before these problems worsen! Tell Prime Minister Harper the Great Lakes must be managed and protected like a national park so we can enjoy this natural area forever. » Thanks for Taking Action! Kayla ThePetitionSite
