GLIN==> Peter Annin, Author of "The Great Lakes Water Wars," This Week in the Great Lakes Town Hall

["Paige Wilder" <pwilder@biodiverse.org>]

		Like the town meetings on which it is modeled, the Great Lakes Town
Hall (http://www.greatlakestownhall) provides a "space" where residents from all across the Great Lakes
basin can come together to
identify common concerns, set the political agenda, share and develop
collective solutions, and demand - as a public - that the Lakes are
clean, abundant, and natural for generations to come.

This week, the Town Hall is pleased to interview Peter Annin, author of The Great Lakes Water Wars. Peter characterizes the question of who is entitled to Lake water as the "Spotted Owl Issue for the Great Lakes." Also featured this week are essays by Darlene DeHudy, president of Muskegon Save Our Shoreline. Darlene writes about a successful citizen campaign to prevent industrial wastewater dumping into Lake Michigan.

Lakes restoration - look for the "What Do You Think?" box on the Town
Hall's home page.
