Why are the Great Lakes Great?

  • They provide water for 37 million people.
  • They are a source of water for regional agriculture and food production.
  • They provide year round tourism, ranging from ice fishing and skiing to swimming and boating.
  • They are a powerful economic engine for the eight state, two province region.
And yet, the Lakes are vulnerable to pollution, invasive species, overconsumption and irresponsible development.
