Understanding CNN's Report on America's Drinking Water

What this episode covers

Our inbox has been inundated with questions regarding the NRDC drinking water report that CNN retreaded yesterday. We wanted to add some context and remind readers that these developments are not new. The scope of the drinking water problem in this country is much broader than the 90 federally regulated contaminants highlighted in the report. With a myriad of water quality crises popping up all over the country this past year, the topic of drinking water quality has once again commanded national media attention. Our Water Nerds dug into the report to draw out some big takeaways.
