A Fresh Restart.
With all of the pollution Detroit is facing it's time for the residents to think and start doing their part to help the city become more enviornmentally friendly. Detroit recycles 7 % of its total solid waste, compared to 26% on average for other major cities.
Doing Their Part.

The residents of Detroit are doing their part to help create a more established enviornmentally frinedly city, they have came up with many ideas to help the city and the vacant lots and homes that populate the city.
Improving indoor and outdoor air quality to reduce harmful effects to health.
Reducing pollution from facilities: be an advocate for local air quality and work with regulators to enforce air permits and address violators.
Repurpose vacant land and structures to protect human and natural health.
Develope an open space plan that creates a long-term community vision for connected accessible green space.
Support policies that create a clean future for Detroit.
The city government should also find a way to help the amount of waste that gets dumped into the river daily. The city needs to somehow manage to find money to help get newer sewage pipes for the city and build bigger ones that are going to help with the over flow of the waste water.

Two new primary clarifiers are to be designed and built, together with three scum buildings and a new sludge pumping station. Additionally, four of the existing clarifiers are to be rehabilitated and work undertaken on their associated scum building. The troughs and weirs at the primary rectangular clarifiers are to be replaced, while a study and design process will be implemented to investigate the relative merits of replacing or rehabilitating the existing troughs, weirs, and baffles at the primary circular clarifiers.
