Water Education Campaign

Unlike many cities and towns, Chicagoans have a huge supply of fresh water at their doorstep: Lake Michigan. While the lake seems vast and indestructible, it is slowly being damaged by overuse and pollution. We need to reverse this trend and protect Lake Michigan so future generations can use and enjoy its water.

In 2005, the City developed a campaign called Save the Source to tell you about the actions you can take to conserve water, maintain water quality and better manage stormwater at your home.
