We presented our research findings and strategies for protecting and enhancing Lake Scugog this week at open houses in Caesarea, Little Britain and Port Perry.
Each year, up to 9.6 tonnes of phosphorous enter Lake Scugog, contributing to aquatic plant growth and a decrease in water quality. One tonne of phosphorous can promote the growth of 500 tonnes of aquatic plants. Additionally, the nutrients taken up and produced by these plants accumulate on the bottom of the lake and feed new plants. Fish are also impacted by a reduction of oxygen in the water as the plants decompose. More- click title
Ontario boasts over 80,000 km in trails. Whether you're in downtown Toronto or North of Superior, we have a trail for you. The Ontario Trails Council is a registered charity, led by volunteers who promote the development, management, use and conservation of Ontario's trails. You'll find everything from gentle walking trails to rock faces for climbing and water routes to canoe and kayak.
