Berkeley grad studies Tahoe’s clarity

Battles are raging all around for the future of Lake Tahoe. As we are finding out, to preserve the lake’s clarity is to sustain all of those who live, work, and play at this monumental water body.

Although Lake Tahoe is severely threatened, we now hold the key to making a difference. This journey has led me to believe that conservation at Lake Tahoe means far more than just protecting this water’s phenomenal optical qualities; it is something critical to the survival of the human race.
