CWA Cafe: Protecting Healthy Water
Tell a Friend About This EventTell a Friend
 

Water is prevalent throughout the four-state region in the form of streams, wetlands, marshes, rivers, creeks, ponds and lakes, so there is no one plan that works at protecting fresh water in each individual ecosystem. Water is a prominent player in our changing climate as increasingly severe weather systems prompt a challenging flood-drought cycle that threatens the well-being of the entire Chicago Wilderness Alliance region. Learn how the Alliance seeks to empower partners with tools needed.

Protecting Healthy Water 

With 34,700 linear miles of streams; over 169,000 acres of inland lakes and marshes, and 126 miles of Lake Michigan coastline, protecting, maintaining and restoring aquatic environments across the four-state region has been an overwhelming prospect. Yet with the proper baseline index tool in place, Chicago Wilderness Alliance partners will be able to share information and comprehensively measure improvements to watershed health as each partner tackles their unique goals for reaching the federal Conserving and Restoring America the Beautiful 30 by 30 Initiative.

Our Goal
Chicago Wilderness Alliance partner organizations across the four-state region will be able to access a regionalized baseline index to contribute to and comprehensively measure improvements to watershed health with the goal of supporting partners in protecting, maintaining and restoring 30% of their freshwater aquatic environments by 2030.

Are you a Chicago Wilderness Alliance partner with a conservation success story you'd like to share or a topic to introduce and discuss with your peers? We'd love to have you create a Cafe session!
