The Great Salt Lake Needs Our Help
The Great Salt Lake is at historically low levels, and that’s a problem for our city’s air quality, economy and ecology. City Cast Salt Lake host Ali Vallarta catches up with Chandler Rosenburg, co-founder of Save our Great Salt Lake, a coalition organizing for statewide action to preserve our city’s namesake.
Rosenburg is helping organize a virtual rally Saturday, January 15 aimed to encourage the legislature to take action when it meets next week.
