News: Pollution in Canada and US
Some 24 billion gallons of untreated effluent enter the Great Lakes every year through combined sewage overflows, a recent study by the Sierra Legal Defense Fund found. Canada's worst offender was Windsor, Ontario, which -- along with U.S. cities Detroit and Cleveland -- performed "abysmally." Cities such as Toronto and Hamilton also earned below-average grades. The main culprits are aging storm runoff and sewer systems, many of which are combined, so that during a storm it is impossible to treat the resulting excess of effluent. |
