Changing the game in the Great Lakes and global aquatic resources

Lack of adequate water is a global crisis that affects more than a billion people worldwide. Sustainability challenges associated with population growth, climate change, land use, energy choices, and global poverty must be addressed to increase water quantity, availability, and quality around the world.

Our community responds to this challenge by working to generate water security for human needs. That’s the SEAS approach.
