1.     Great Lakes Watershed Clean-Up – In the spring of 2021, this autumn and again the week of Earth Day 2022, clubs throughout District 7090 and beyond are coming together to collaborate and create a huge impact on a bigger scale than we could ever do as individual Rotary clubs.  The Great Lakes contain 20% of the world’s fresh water and yet 22 million pounds of pollution and plastic ends up in the Great Lakes and adjacent watersheds and waterways.  Now thanks to Rotarians, much of this trash has been cleaned up from the shores.  Outstanding efforts!  If your club has not done so already, be sure to decide what date the week of April 17-24, 2022 you will join the 2022 effort!
