Winter Salt Week is a week dedicated to raising awareness around salt pollution and reduction solutions. Governmental and non-governmental organizations across the United States have been tackling this issue in their own communities, watersheds, and states for years. During the last week of January each year, we come together to highlight challenges, showcase successes, and elevate the need for broader policy and societal action. Winter salt use damages infrastructure and threatens the health of lakes, streams, and drinking water. An informed public can support the adoption of best practices in snow and ice control and advocate for the protection of freshwater resources.
