The Nature Change RUclips channel provides quick access to the video essays and documentary shorts developed by a group of nonprofit organizations in Northwest Lower Michigan.
We created naturechange.org to fuel public discussions about natural resource management and adaptation in response to climate change, invasive species, changing Great Lakes water levels and other environmental challenges. Focused on Northwest Lower Michigan, this magazine delivers beautifully illustrated text-based articles, photo-essays, and short video presentations that bear witness to the on-going changes in our natural resources, document the responses of volunteer conservationists and natural resource organizations, and grapple with the challenges of adapting to change. We want to foster a healthy on-going discussion about how to preserve and, possibly re-make one of the world’s most beautiful places, our northern Michigan paradise.

Restoring Aquatic Ecosystems
Six years ago, the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians formed Michigan’s first indigenous-led, multi-agency collaborative to restore and protect the ecology of our streams and rivers. "Restoring Aquatic Ecosystems" is a 26-minute documentary that shines a light on these nonprofit and governmental organizations working together to restore the natural flow in Michigan’s streams and rivers - often called ”the arteries of mother earth.”
WCMU Public Television was the first to broadcast and cablecast this documentary on Sunday, October 2, 2022. The film is also available through Nature Change (naturechange.org).
