Why Watersheds Are Important

Peggy Smedley and Bailey Parker, executive director, Gills Creek Watershed Assn., talk about watersheds and why they are important. She says think of it as a catch basin—every bit of water that comes into that point is the watershed. They also discuss: How urbanization is impacting watersheds and why every little act counts. What happened following the flood of 2015 when Gills Creek broke through dams and destroyed homes. The Gills Creek Watershed Assn., the Adopt a Stream program, the Watershed Champion program, and how it fits into what South Carolina is doing. gillscreekwatershed.org  (4/12/23 - 52) IoT, Internet of Things, Peggy Smedley, artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data, digital transformation, cybersecurity, blockchain, sustainability, future of work, podcast, Bailey Parker, Gills Creek Watershed Assn.
