LMC Cast: Save the Sound | National Water Quality Month
Manage episode 501239138 series 2439661
August is National Water Quality Month, and there’s no better time to understand why our local beaches sometimes close after it rains, and what’s really flowing into Long Island Sound.
In this episode, LMC Media and Save the Sound take listeners beneath the surface to uncover the causes of pollution, how bacteria levels are tracked, and why stormwater and sewage pose growing challenges to water quality. Hear from locals, environmental scientists, and educators working to monitor water quality, raise awareness, and empower the public to take action, from simple behavior changes to pushing for smarter policy.
If you’ve ever wondered why the beach is closed on a sunny day, or what you can do to help keep it open, this episode is for you.
