Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individuals from all walks of life have devoted their time, energy, and money to restoring the state's lost wetlands. Clare Howard and David Zalaznik take readers into the marshes, bogs, waterways, and swamps brought back to life by these wetland pioneers. Howard’s storytelling introduces grassroots conservators dedicated to learning through trial and error, persistence, and listening to the lessons taught by wetlands. They undertake hard work inspired by ever-increasing floods and nutrient runoff, and they reconnect the Earth’s natural rhythms. Zalaznik's stunning black and white photos illuminate changes in the land and the people themselves. Seeds sprout after lying dormant for one hundred years. Water winds through ancient channels. Animals and native plants return. As the forgiving spirit of a wetland emerges, it nurtures a renewed landscape that alters our view of the environment and the planet. An inspiring document of passion and advocacy, In the Spirit of Wetlands reveals the transformative power of restoration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Illinois River Coordinating Council resulted from the Illinois River Watershed Restoration Act, which called on the lieutenant governor to chair a council to coordinate programs to enhance the Illinois River Watershed. The move to protect and enhance the watershed began in 1994 when the Lieutenant Governor's Office launched the Illinois River Valley Partnership, bringing together a diverse array of public and private organizations to enhance the river's capacity as a recreation, transportation and wildlife habitat resource. The group was also charged with developing an ecosystem restoration plan for the river system. When Corinne Wood convened the Illinois River Strategy Team, the vision of the group was to create "a naturally diverse and productive Illinois River Valley that is sustained by natural ecological processes and managed to provide for compatible social and economic activities." The result was a 21-page report containing 34 recommendations. This document is a part of that report.
