It may not grab headlines like climate change or forever chemicals, but nitrogen pollution threatens our air, water, and public health.

On Monday, Stetson, supported by a grant from BlueGAP and the National Science Foundation, hosted a day of conversation about the issue and how to address it. The event brought scientists, nonprofit managers, legal professionals, policy makers, academics, and students together to talk about its sources, impacts, solutions, and what (and who) stands in the way of fighting it.

As the day began, Law Professor and Stetson Institute for Biodiversity Law & Policy Director Royal Gardner talked about what makes nitrogen pollution a unique problem.
