“For as long as I can remember, Great Salt Lake has held a special place in my heart,” writes Adrian Sandoval. “It hurts me to this day that I and many others may never see or experience life with a greater Salt Lake.”
A young person runs through the Great Salt Lake on June 15, 2023, near Magna, Utah.Recent years have brought my attention to Great Salt Lake. Being a kid, I had no idea how diverse this region was and, as I’m entering my mid-teenage years, it’s absolutely beyond me how unique and special this place truly is.
Moving into 2022, I was disappointed by how little action was being taken to protect and preserve such a massive body of water. I wanted to do something about it, but I was — and still am — just a kid trying to get by in high school. I thought I had to deal with Great Salt Lake being gone forever.Going into the late summer and fall of last year, I along with everybody else in the Great Basin, noticed an extreme shift in weather patterns.
to new record lows over the next few years if nothing is done to preserve our precious water resources. That could be pretty hard to imagine today, but why should we imagine something that used to be so great? Younger generations will never get to see how magnificent Great Salt Lake truly was. Many — including myself — will never get to see the full potential of what was once something so great. It’s devastating to think about why it might have to be that way.
