Life Solved

WATER BLINDNESS FT PROFESSOR JOHN WILLIAMS

Listen on

Episode notes

“People switch off on water... in this country. We have a disconnect. In lower income countries, people have a much greater connection with the environment because they're in contact with it more."

 

Beneath our feet, at the end of our roads, or hidden out of site, there’s a whole world of water and waste! Managing this is key to human health, from tackling the increasing levels of chemicals entering our water systems, to meeting demands for development. Professor Williams tells us how Portsmouth is rethinking systems, all whilst creating innovative new approaches to our environment and economy.
