Restoration of the Great Lakes
This chapter explores the historical pollution challenges of the Great Lakes, notably the 1969 Cuyahoga River fire, and the resulting environmental reforms like the Clean Water Act. It highlights U.S.-Canada collaborations aimed at reducing toxic pollutants and managing invasive species, particularly the sea lamprey, to restore the Great Lakes ecosystem and fisheries.
