درباره این اپیزود
Today, we’re exploring the quiet but powerful link between forests and your faucet. A new study from North Carolina State University, published in PLOS Water, reveals how the way we use land—particularly forests near rivers—can have profound, long-term effects on drinking water quality.
Using models to project out to 2070, the research shows that converting forests to urban or agricultural land near water sources leads to more sediment, more nitrogen, and more filtration costs—raising both environmental and financial concerns.
Joining us today to unpack the science and the stakes is Dr Elly T. Gay, lead author of the study and a postdoctoral researcher at the San Diego State Univeristy.
