Popular Echo commentator Gary Wilson recently took on some video work during Great Lakes Week in Cleveland. That was a meeting of several Great Lakes organizations including the International Joint Commission. In this clip Gary discusses the frustration some organizations expressed in an Echo story and elsewhere over the pace of addressing Great Lakes environmental problems.
The clip provided by Detroit Public Television also includes Gary raising that issue at a town hall featuring members of the International Joing Commssion and other top environmental officials. Also providing perspective is Patrick Doran, the Nature Conservancy’s director of science for Michigan and the Great Lakes. //
This week Echo reporters asked the public and an expert to explain what cage-free actually means.

In 18 hours you can drive from Milwaukee to Dallas. If you break a few speed limit laws, you can get from Toledo to Orlando. You can even drive from Detroit to Chicago three times–and still have a few hours to spare. Or, you can stay close to home and swim in all five Great Lakes in one day. That is exactly what three friends and I did this summer.
This week Echo reporters asked the public and an expert to explain why climate change is or is not a controversial teaching topic.
