A Combination in Behalf of Restoration

Abstract

communities. I have asked my Uncle Hans about Chicago River. He told me that he has not thought about the river that much. He lived in Chicago since 1950. He thought that river was cleaner in the past. He told me that the Chicago River didn’t smell as it does now. He thought that the river use to be a place where people dumped garbage and things they don’t want to keep. Chicago River was a dump place for many years and it is used now for every reason. He told me that Chicago River had to be sacrificed to save Lake Michigan. He thinks that we had made right decision and that the lake is more important than the Chicago River. But we must do some things to improve the river and surrounding areas. We also must protect wild life around it.
