摘要

大盐湖是世界上最大的终端湖泊之一，也是西半球重要的生态系统之一，在我有生之年的36年里，它的规模从有记录以来的最大变成了最小。在这篇观点文章中，我认为根本问题在于我们犹他州人和其他利益相关者把大盐湖当作事后的想法，而不是一项资产。我描述了导致这一点的条件，一些正在发生的变化，以及湖泊恢复的新希望。

Transforming Great Salt Lake from Afterthought to Asset

In a 36-year period that coincides with my lifetime, Great Salt Lake, one of the world’s largest terminal lakes and a critical ecosystem in the Western Hemisphere, went from its largest to its smallest recorded size. In this opinion piece, I argue that the fundamental problem is that we Utahns and other stakeholders have treated Great Salt Lake as an afterthought instead of an asset. I describe the conditions that led to this point, some transformations now taking place, and the new hope that the lake will recover.
