The cleaning process of Lake Washington is an
excellent example of community or people matter scenario. Lake Washington is in Washington USA
and was polluted by sewage dump and other nutrients into the water which
greatly harmed it. The people caused a huge pressure on authorities to take an immediate
action to save the Lake, as a result the government acted and installed systems
where the wastes were not dumped into the lake but were taken to another point
where it can be diluted into sea.
This also carry lessons that technical solutions can help
save the environment and people do matter in these issues.
