And it would be nice to look deeper into things like Cook Nuclear in southwest Michigan and its use of Lake Michigan for cooling water...

Not to downplay a significant act, but there are so many people extracting money from the Great Lakes (and ALL natural resources) with total abandon and "externalizing" the costs to society that I am sickened just thinking about it... Kudos to Governor Whitmer for at least having the courage to START addressing these issues.
