Upper Midwesterners to Strategize About Invasive Species Management

“Invasive species affect our economy, leisure activities and even our health,” said Carmen Chapin, the coordinator of the National Park Service Great Lakes Exotic Plant Management Team. “They’ve become everyone's problem, so that is how to tackle them. Together.” Chapin will be one of over 600 people attending the Upper Midwest Invasive Species Conference (UMISC) in Duluth, Minn., on October 20-22, 2014. The biennial conference is a showcase for the ways people can help to control invasive species. http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=099a9196d58c0806a6976600b&id=cb88158637&e=16053fc93a
