David J. Ruck, 2022

The Erie Situation explores the confluence of science, public sentiment, politics, and the powerful farming lobby as Ohio wrestles with how to confront the drivers of toxic algae in one of the Great Lakes. What's at stake? Who's at risk? And will volunteer measures be enough to confront this growing crisis, both in Ohio and beyond?

A panel discussion follows the film with filmmaker David Ruck, Ed Verhemme (LimnoTech), Hayden Henderson (Great Lakes Research Center), and Nancy Langston (Social Sciences).
