The Clean Water Act of 1972 was a significant achievement for the United States, and yet today the nation's waterways remain extremely polluted. If we have a "clean water" act - why is it so damn hard to find clean water?
In this introductory episode the lads discuss the recent failures of the Clean Water Act, the material science of water and the water cycle, and introduce the first key player in our story: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Did you know that shit rolls downhill? This and other amazing revelations in this episode!
