This Week in Water for June 2, 2019

from H2ORadio · host H2ORadio

Eco-Friendly Containers? Not So Friendly. That story and more on H2O Radio’s weekly news report about water. The Midwest continues to be plagued by severe weather with numerous tornadoes and major flooding. Momentum is building across the country for something once considered a fringe movement. A new study describes how insecticides are not only failing to control mosquitoes, they're killing off their predators instead. PFAS chemicals are being used in compostable food containers thought to be eco-friendly alternatives. Pohoiki Beach, on the Big Island of Hawaii, formed after the Kilauea volcano erupted—and although it's brand new, it has an old problem. A case in U.S. federal court next week could decide the fate of the climate crisis in our country.
