Event Details

Join us for a panel discussion on the status of saline lakes, featuring representatives from Mono Lake, Great Salt Lake, and Laguna Mar Chiquita. These three sister lakes share ecological similarities and serve as vital habitats for migratory birds. They face common challenges, from declining water levels to shifting conservation policies, and their futures are intertwined with science, advocacy, and water management decisions. With the upcoming State Water Board hearing for Mono Lake, recent legislative efforts for Great Salt Lake, and ongoing conservation work at Laguna Mar Chiquita, significant developments are shaping the future of saline lake conservation, making this discussion especially timely. Panelists will explore the current health of each lake, the efforts to protect them, and what lies ahead, offering valuable insight into how local and international actions are influencing these critical ecosystems.
