DECEMBER GENERAL MEETING:
Galveston Bay Report Card 2021 & GBF Updates

On December 9, the Galveston Bay Foundation (GBF) will brief us on the findings of the 2021 Galveston Bay Report Card and other GBF news.
The annual Galveston Bay Report Card is a citizen driven, scientific analysis of the health of Galveston Bay. Supported by grants, and implemented by the Galveston Bay Foundation and the Houston Advanced Research Center (HARC), the report card's goal is to engage community members in meaningful discussion about Bay health topics. The report card is also designed to inspire people to take actions that protect and preserve the Bay.

Through a series of surveys and interactive presentations, six topic categories were identified by the GBF as health topics of interest to the public in the fall of 2014:
Water Quality, Pollution Events & Sources, Wildlife, Habitat, Human Health Risks and Coastal Change. Scientists from the Houston Advanced Research Center then analyzed data and trends for 19 indicators. What has emerged is a compelling story about Galveston Bay, its challenges, opportunities, and greatest needs.
