Good words

We are delighted to see the installation of the first wind turbine on the southern shores of Lake Erie in front of our wonderful Science Center. We hope this will be the harbinger of a new advanced energy manufacturing industry which will help secure Northeast Ohio’s future economic prosperity.

Presented by the Northeast Ohio Watershed Council

Flooding, erosion, and water quality problems are a reality for our communities. Solving these problems can be difficult since stormwater runoff from one community drains into another; crossing political boundaries. Learn how a comprehensive “watershed approach” to stormwater is the best answer to these challenges, and what is being done in Northeast Ohio.
