Abstract:
Pollution in the form of garbage is a problem at Jordan Lake. The handful of organizations who are in charge of the lake are not in charge of cleaning up the garbage. The work of cleanup is left to volunteers. Many individuals and groups are helping, but the one million visitors and the Haw River that feed the lake just keep bringing more. The garbage harms wildlife and pollutes the water.
