Lake Erie shows signs of recovery after pollution battle
The National Geographic Society notes Lake Erie, once the sickest Great Lake, is slowly recovering due to better pollution controls, new sewage plants, and stricter effluent monitoring. Sport and commercial landings rise with perch, pike, and salmon catches, including New York’s 333,000 pounds of food fish last year. Experts warn continued nutrient input fuels algae and low oxygen, but faster flushing may gradually carry contaminants away.
