Great Lakes Areas of Concern are designated geographic areas within the Great Lakes Basin that show severe environmental degradation. There are a total of forty-three areas of concern within the Great Lakes, the majority of twenty-six being in the U.S., seventeen in Canada and five are shared by the two countries. The Great Lakes are the largest system of fresh water lakes in the world and are shared by the United States and Canada. The Great Lakes make up 95% of the surface freshwater in the contiguous United States and have 10,000 miles of coastline (including connecting channels, mainland and islands) --more than the contiguous United States' Pacific and Atlantic coastlines combined. The lakes are a system of transport and shipping, as well as a place of recreation. Traffic on and around the lakes is currently threatening the lakes' ecological stability.
