Dive in and get wet as Carly tells Lila why rainwater is no longer safe to consume. A recent study by the University of Stockholm found that the amount of PFAS present in all rainwater on Earth are beyond safe levels of consumption. PFAS, AKA Forever Chemicals, have been on the scene since 1940 and are found in teflon, fire fighting foam, PIZZA BOXES, and so much more. These chemicals have no problem entering our atmosphere and mixing with rain which in turn enters our streams, lakes, oceans, soil, and groundwater. Listen to learn more and find out how to stay safe out there.

We're back! We missed you and we hope you missed us. Listen to this weeks episode to catch up on what's been happening in the fresh and salt water worlds since we last spoke.

Bottled alkaline water companies have made lots of claims about the effects of drinking water with a higher pH level. Maybe you've heard of its anti aging properties or how it can help fight against cancer. Maybe you've just heard it's better for you than tap water?

Dive in and get wet!

The nation of Tonga is an archipelago of 169 small islands in Polynesia. It’s likely you’ve never heard of it and even more unlikely you were made aware of one the largest volcano eruptions in history. On December 20, 2021, a set of eruptions began and did not stop until it’s very powerful climax on January 15, 2021. The ash cloud soared nearly 36 miles high into the atmosphere, the largest in history.

Listen along this week as Lila uncovers what is one of the most insane natural disasters of our time. We give you a history, geography, volcanology, and a tsunami lesson filled with lots of laughs inbetween and of course some very relevent side bars.

So learn, listen, laugh along as we take a deep dive into the submarine volcano, Hunga Tonga - Hunga Ha’apai.
