Michigan Tech’s Great Lakes Research Center is joining with the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community for an extended World Water Day slate of events. It kicked off last Thursday, with a community art gallery inspired by the question, “What does water mean to you?” There was also an extended discussion on the film Brave Blue World, the latest entry in Tech’s Sustainability Film Series.
Professor Erica Vye says that the Keweenaw is in a unique position to celebrate, but being surrounded by water means we can also wind up susceptible to thinking its abundance will always be a certainty.
Tonight’s Husky Bites presentation is about undergrad projects to help build autonomous jet skis that can help map the Great Lakes. Tuesday will see a speech by Braedon Butterfield of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa.
A majority of the events for World Water Day happen on March 23rd and 24th. The full list is available here.
