(Posted by Jeanne McCann.)

Settle in, grab some popcorn, put your feet up and prepare to be outraged when you hear what former Maryland State Sen. Gerald Winegrad, architect of the 25-step Chesapeake Bay Action Plan, has to say in this excellent public presentation at Quiet Waters Park, Annapolis, Maryland, on May 19, 2011. Sen. Winegrad doesn’t mince words when it comes to talking about what must be done if we have any hope of restoring the Chesapeake Bay. It’s not a pretty picture.
