The Salt Lake Area Chapter of LDSES, is building a culture of stewardship along the Wasatch Front. Stewardship touches every aspect of our lives, and can feel overwhelming. Because we can’t do everything at once, the Salt Lake Area Chapter is focused on restoring Great Salt Lake and improving air quality with a community of like-minded stewards.
Restoring Great Salt Lake
We live in the arid west, but Utah public service customers use more water per-capita than those of any other state. Water policies and drought have brought the Great Salt Lake to a historic low. Poor water practices endanger not just the vast migrations of birds that depend on its wetlands for food, but our own respiratory health.
We can choose to manage our yards, farms, ranches, commercial properties, and public spaces in ways that allow more water to flow to Great Salt Lake.
Volunteer Service
Service is the bedrock of stewardship. Whether helping clear waterways, picking up litter, clearing invasive weeds, or preparing food for those in need, our personal actions make a difference, and are examples to those around us.
