@AnneTherese_G It’s the perfect thing- now you know exactly what you’re fighting for and how much is at stake. Your perspective and resolve will never be the same, and that’s good for this big challenge. 🌈

“A climate activist with a baby, that makes zero sense.”
I can understand this comment because I used to feel the same. But now, becoming a mother, it feels like the most climate optimistic thing to do.
What are your thoughts?

It's fascinating to hear about the many advances in #desalination from Peter Fiske, someone at the center of the research and who I've wanted to have on the podcast for a while.

In an increasingly thirsty world, how is #desalination becoming more of an option for creation of freshwater? In this #podcast, Peter Fiske of @NAWIhub discusses innovation in membranes, technologies for handling brine, and extraction of valuable elements.bit.ly/DesalSalt

“Don’t trust the tap #water?” I ask the guy refilling huge plastic bottles at a machine in the grocery store.
“Nope, it’s got poison in it,” he says.

I’m proud to share a new report from the US Water Alliance: The Path to Universally Affordable Water Access: Guiding Principles for the Water Sector, which outlines solutions and guiding principles for a new approach to water affordability.

Everyone, regardless of income, should have safe, reliable access to our most essential resource—water. Shutoffs for low-income households when they cannot pay water bills is a drastic and unnecessary response to poverty. And alternatives to such measures are within our reach!

My local #water utility @CFPUA installed granular activated carbon filters that remove #PFAS. I met the director @kennyraywald and deputy Beth Eckert to raise a glass of tap to celebrate. Thanks to the $43 million investment my community has some of the country’s cleanest water.
