We All Live On The WaterWe All Live on The Water

Aldo Leopold wrote: "A true Conservation ethic will evolve only when citizens, not just government alone, take responsibility for managing and protecting our land and waters."

The We All Live on the Water project began as a collaborative effort involving the four Lake Michigan basin-based organizations in Wisconsin.  The effort began with the production of signs that carried the same message. The campaign has evolved into a series of seminars, outreach activities, and actions designed to raise awareness and understanding of water resource issues. 

 

Niagara Escarpment Resource NetworkNiagara Escarpment Resource Network

NERN is an affiliation of individuals, organizations, public agencies and private entities dedicated to promoting the preservation and protection of the Niagara Escarpment landscape, as well as educating the public about the geological history and significance of the Niagara Escarpment, and its recreational, environmental, cultural and economic restoration opportunities.  As a measure of our success, 2010 was declared the Year of the Niagara Escarpment in Wisconsin.

Improving ground and surface water quality through enhancing environmental, community, and economic aspects of agricultural operations - AWIN is a locally-led comprehensive effort to foster, demonstrate and operationally implement agricultural practices that contribute to improving the basin’s water quality.  AWIN has encouraged broadening farm management from a narrow operational mode to a resource-sustainable and protective perspective.  It has created a community model that brings together farmers and other affected interests in a cooperative and constructive environment.
