Sierra Club Lunch and Learn: An Overview of Nitrate Challenges in Wisconsin’s Groundwater – ONLINE ONLY

Nitrate is a challenging issue because nitrogen is both a necessary component of agricultural production and an environmental pollutant. This talk will use nitrate data from Wisconsin to illustrate the relationship between human activities and our groundwater. Specifically, how nitrate ends up in our groundwater, why some areas more prone to contamination, and what practices may help improve water quality.
