A Celebration of Women , The Great Lakes is the source of drinking water for 40 million people, including possibly you. But it is so polluted that there is evidence of cancer and reproductive abnormalities in human and animal populations in the Basin.

Beluga whales that inhabit the great lakes are a majestic and rare treat. But these are among the most contaminated mammals in the entire world. And many fish that come from the Lakes are simply too contaminated to be eaten by humans or any other animal without serious health consequences.
We’re not talking about a remote area that’s getting polluted. We’re talking about our back yard, and the source of water that we drink every day.
