Spending time along the shores of Great Lakes, from Holland State Park and Rosy Mound Natural Area on Lake Michigan to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore on Lake Superior.
Despite all the Midwest has given to the world, many communities are at risk of being left behind by climate change solutions. I am thrilled to be working with an organization that connects the important goals of protecting the environment, lifting up disadvantaged communities, and promoting healthy sustainable economic development.
