Thought you'd get a kick out of these shots of our visit Tuesday on board the Environmental Protection Agency's Lake Guardian research ship. On board, scientists are keeping a close eye on the Great Lakes---monitoring everything from invasive species which are literally changing the food chain and character of these treasured bodies of water but also looking at toxins which flow into them. We went out onto Lake Michigan aboard the Lake Guardian and had a chance to see the equipment used in these Great Lakes studies up close. We report on our trip and introduce you to these scientists on Wednesday evening's (9/9/2009) WGN News at Nine! Hope you have a chance to check our report out tonight at 9 P.M. and online!
