Something cool is happening on the beach along Lake Michigan in Ludington this evening. Grand Valley State University's Annis Water Resources Institute will demonstrate its BeBot to clean up the beach.
Annis Water Resources Institute research Professor Alan Steinman says some 20 million pounds of plastic could be entering the Great Lakes every year, the source of drinking water for 40 million Americans and Canadians. He says fish are eating micro-plastics, which can kill them. He says the real solution is to reduce the use of single use plastics.
