Summary
Grandma says tap water is good for you, but a filter does make sink water taste better. When you turn on the shower or order tap at a restaurant, Philly’s drinking water shapes your everyday life and health. Host Trenae Nuri talks with Christine Kirchhoff – associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, and law, policy, and engineering – at Penn State, about whether you should drink water straight out of the tap.
