Waters of Wisconsin

Water defines life in Wisconsin. Our landscape, history, cultures, communities, ecosystems, and economy are fundamentally shaped by water. With the Great Lakes on Wisconsin’s eastern and northern borders, the Mississippi River to the west, and a vast network of surface waters, water may be our most precious resource. Through our Waters of Wisconsin Initiatives, the Academy has worked to safeguard Wisconsin’s fresh water ecosystems and water supply for future generations.
