Connecting the Dots Between Climate Change and Clean Water
On this episode of Solving Water, Dr. Stephanie Smith, Xylem Product Segment Manager for Integrated Services and Systems, joins the show to take us further into the tangled world of climate change and its far reaching impact on the world's most essential resource: water. Dr. Smith discusses the impact of soil and sedimentation, harmful algal blooms, stormwater runoff, ice melt and drought on water quality — as well as some lesser known effects of climate change on water quality — and how the water industry can get to the root of the problem.
