Benefits




Yes, the Chesapeake Bay is an outstanding resource. Everyone receives a number of benefits from the Bay.

The first huge benefit is transportation. The bay allows millions of people to travel by boat. Since the Bay is right next to the Atlantic Ocean, people can use it to travel around the world.

The Chesapeake Bay also opens trade. It gives people a huge access to the Atlantic Ocean, which starts trade from everywhere!

Another benefit is recreation. Boating, swimming, skiing, and other water activities are all possible because of the Bay. Fun on the bay is one benefit anyone can connect to. Surely, it’s a worthwhile benefit.

Yet another benefit is food. Fish and crabs, a popular favorite, are again from none other than the Bay. I’m sure very few people would gladly give up seafood from the Chesapeake Bay.

The Chesapeake Bay provides trade, recreation, food, transportation, and so much more. The least everyone can do is paying their share to ensure that the Chesapeake Bay stays healthy.
