Nutrient Pollution Outreach and Education Materials
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) wants to enlist the help of local groups in sharing information with the media and the public about the growing threats to our nation’s water resources from nutrient pollution and ways that the public can help reduce this pollution. Making this important environmental issue relevant to one’s community and explaining how it affects local water resources (like a local lake, river, reservoir, etc.) will be critical for success. The agency is therefore sharing materials to assist state and local agencies, watershed groups, nongovernmental organizations and others in developing effective outreach materials related to nutrient pollution.
