Watch: Third Coast Conversations in Mount Pleasant

Michigan’s water has seen some serious challenges, from industry, agriculture, and maybe even your backyard. Experts say private septic systems are a significant source of surface water contamination.

We used a community conversation in Mount Pleasant to explore threats to Michigan’s water and ideas to help it recover,  everything from using science to songs. 

The full video of our conversation is below:
