:THE GREAT LAKES INFORMATION SERVICE is now available for ftp!
:
:Fact Sheets about various Great Lakes topics and issues, along with two
:years worth of new stories from the Great Lakes Reporter, can be found
:via anonymous ftp at nic.cic.net, in the subdirectory
:/pub/great-lakes/cgl (where you'll find a readme.txt file which explains
:and lists what's available in what subdirectory).
:
:Topics covered by Fact Sheets include Great Lakes water diversion, water
:quality, waterfront development, pollution prevention, regional and
:international agreements such as the Great Lakes Water QUality
:Agreement, and the effects of global warming on the Lakes.
:
:The Great Lakes Reporter, a regional newsmagazine published by The
:Center for the Great Lakes, covers news, trends, and issues relating the
:environment of the Great Lakes ecosystem and the economy of the region,
:especially when they interact. You will find every major story that ahs
:appeared in the Reporter since the start of 1990, listed by subject area
:with headlines for easy access and searching. Typical topics include
:coverage of the historic regional public meetings held in Traverse City
:in October 1991; trends in various key economic sectors around the
:Lakes; analysis of current water quality planning and activities by
:governments, industry and citizen's groups around the region; waterfront
:development aroound the Lakes; "invader" species such as the zebra
:mussel; the state and future of the Great Lakes' fishery; the status of
:proposals to divert Great Lakes water, and so forth.
:
:The Reporter is a part of the Great Lakes Information Service, a public
:service of The Center for the Great Lakes. This ftp access is the first
:step in a long-range plan to put the Information Service "on-line"; more
:Fact Sheets on more topics will be added, Reporter stories will be
:continuously added as they are published, and existing Fact Sheets are
:periodically updated by Center researchers.
:
:For more information, or to receive this material by U.S. Mail, send
:email to prb@chinet.chi.il.us. The Information Service also responds to
:requests for information from researchers, inlcuding searches of our
:library, and picking the brains of our brilliant, experienced and modest
:staff. Call 312-263-0785 and ask for Paul Botts or Noah Eiger; be sure
:and tell us where you heard of us, so we know whether this method of
:making the service known is working!
