Our August movie screening will provide an overview of surface and groundwater watersheds, in addition to the controversial issue of water diversions. With these concepts and issues as a backdrop, the film will examine the Great Lakes Compact Agreement and provide information on how individuals can shape policies related to water use and protection.
A discussion regarding Great Lakes water and the Great Lakes Compact will follow the screening, led by Dr. Kenneth Kilbert, University of Toledo Professor of Law.
This film is a collaboration between scientist Rebecca Klaper and filmmaker Matthew Radcliff. Funding was provided by Wisconsin Coastal Management, UWM Great Lakes WATER Institute, and Paignton Pictures.
