The Great Lakes Ecoregion Network (GLEN) is calling on the Canadian and United States governments to renew and strengthen their commitment to water quality and healthy ecosystems. GLEN, a new initiative to engage members of the Great Lakes environmental community on issues related to the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement (GLWQA), is issuing the call for better protection of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin as the signing of the agreement celebrates its 50th anniversary.
