In labs across the country, and from the Louisiana bayous to the Illinois River and the streets of Chicago, an all-out war is taking place to halt the advancement of the invasive Asian Carp into the Great Lakes. Andrew Reeves, author of Overrun: Dispatches from the Asian Carp Crisis (March 2019) and Elizabeth Miller from IdeaStream discuss the research, the resources, and the radical scientific and political shift that is needed to protect the Great Lakes and to restore our degraded rivers, streams, and waterways. This event is part of the 2019 Cleveland Humanities Festival and is free and open to the public. For a full list of Cleveland Humanities Festival events and exhibits, visit chf.case.edu.
