If you’re wondering why this is especially catastrophic aside from the the obvious (wetlands, weather patterns, etc): there is a layer of ARSENIC (yes FUCKING ARNSENIC) on the bottom of the Great Salt Lake since it doesn’t drain and is like a collection pool of minerals, thus the salt. When the lake fully dried up, on windy days, arsenic will be blown all over the residents of the Wasatch Front, a region of 2.6 million, which is 79% of Utah’s population. Can’t wait to breathe arsenic and whatever the fuck else is at the bottom of the GSL 💕 thanks Republican law makers!!!! At least I can’t get an abortion or attend a drag show :)
