As part of the Water Institute's WaterTalks lecture series, Erin Mahoney, Commissioner of Environmental Services for York Region and Douglas Wright Engineer-in-Residence will present: York Region’s One Water Story… recognizing the value of water in all its forms.
Co-hosted by the Water Institute and The Turkstra Chair in Urban Engineering.
Join us for a special WaterTalk co-hosted by the University of Waterloo’s Water Institute and The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN), where Juliette Legler, Chair of Toxicology, Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences, Utrecht University, The Netherlands, presents, “Microplastics and Human Health: Moving the Field Forward.”
Sometimes figuring out which conservation practices are most effective at reducing agricultural phosphorus losses to surface water bodies seems impossibly complex, and it is hard to know which solutions will work best where. This presentation synthesizes research from over a decade of on-farm, edge-of-field trials within the Lake Erie watershed to highlight how the efficiencies and trade-offs of different practices vary by region and site.
