.#Wisconsin story. Good rundown by @St_Verburg of ideas for addressing water pollution from large farms. Now that @GovEvers has replaced Scott Walker, who did not care about the environment, some of them are even coming from Republicans in the Legislature.
...And this is why such ideas are needed. Every year around this time you can drive through the farm country around Madison and see rivers of manure, spread over frozen ground and carried with snowmelt into locals streams & lakes.
This winter, which has had heavy snowfall, will see heavy farm runoff. This is just farmers exporting the pollution their operations generate for other people to deal with. Via @yaharaproject — a documentary about the watershed around Madison.
