## Resource

Vermont’s lakes are in the spotlight this July—officially declared Lakes Appreciation Month by Governor Phil Scott—as these vital water bodies face mounting threats from climate-driven extremes like droughts and floods. Beyond their beauty, these 800+ lakes supply drinking water, support recreation, and sustain wildlife. Officials are rallying residents to take action: planting native vegetation along shorelines to stabilize banks, cool waters, and boost biodiversity. It’s a grassroots effort to build resilient ecosystems—one yard at a time. Small choices today can have big impacts for the future of Vermont’s lakes.
