Our Damaged Environment
One of the key reasons we live here is to enjoy the benefits of living next to one of the world’s most treasured bodies of water, the Chesapeake Bay.
We all know we need to protect it. But what is the best way?
The City of Annapolis has a proven track record in the clean-up of Back, Spa & Weems Creeks.
They have controlled storm water run-off, identified all drainage areas that run into bay waters, created innovative education programs and won awards. The conservation easement program is actively managed, not just put into a drawer and forgotten about.
Anne Arundel County seems to be perpetually focused inland and on growth. Yes, some programs exist but they are under funded and given little staff resources. Why? Few economic incentives exist to pay attention. For the county, it’s all about economic growth and the next sub-division.
