Winter Salt Week: An Eye on Salt Pollution
January 27 @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm
FreeRoad salt keeps us safe on roads and sidewalks, but it can also pose a threat to fish and wildlife as well as human health. Fish and bugs that live in freshwater streams can’t survive in extra salty water. Water treatment plants are not equipped to filter out the extra salt, so it can end up in your tap water and even corrode your pipes. Since 2018, the Izaak Walton League Salt Watch program has been mobilizing community scientists across the nation to monitor chloride (road salt) levels in their local waterways and advocate for smarter salting practices.
Join this free webinar, An Eye on Salt Pollution, for Winter Salt Week with speaker, Abby Hileman.
