Five artists, including members of the indigenous community, have created new works of art focused on pollution in the Lake Champlain Basin. Their works involve research data from scientist Dr. Curt Stager, a nationally acclaimed paleontologist/climatologist. The goal of the project is to communicate awareness about the ecological condition of the Champlain watershed and encourage residents and visitors to reduce their impacts on the basin.
Discover the story of Burlington’s Waterfront on a naturalist-led walk along Lake Champlain. Geology, nature, history, infrastructure, and innovation are interwoven in this constantly evolving landscape. The Burlington Waterfront has long been a hub for transportation, recreation, water collection, and water treatment. Learn about the area’s natural and human history and explore nature-based solutions that clean the water flowing to Lake Champlain including rain gardens, gravel wetlands, and permeable pavers.
This outing is a part of the LCBP’s year-long commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Clean Water Act.
