🚣♀️ According to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, we’ve lost about half of the state’s natural shorelines. And researchers say natural shoreline continues to disappear at an alarming rate. MPR News Host Angela Davis and her guests explore what we can do to prevent shoreline erosion , improve water quality and create more habitat for wildlife.
📞 And we want to hear from you, too. What changes have you noticed on your favorite lake in recent years? What questions do you have about what causes shoreline erosion and how to prevent it? Should natural shorelines become the standard rather than the exception? Call us at 651-227-6000 or 800-242-2828. |

“We are a land of 10,000 lakes,” said Paul Radomski, a longtime lake ecologist with the DNR. “We don't want to be a land of 10,000 impaired lakes.” | |
