## Resource

Dr. Angela speaks with environmental innovator Eugene Yumshtyk about stopping toxic water contamination at its source and why prevention is key to protecting communities and ecosystems. Clean water protection often begins long before contamination ever reaches a river, reservoir, or community water supply. In this episode of the Podcasthon series, Every Drop Has a Story, Dr. Angela speaks with Eugene Yumshtyk, COO of Paradigm Shift Technologies, about the ongoing environmental risks associated with Hexavalent Chrome, the toxic chemical made widely known in the Erin Brockovich case. While many people believe the issue ended years ago, Eugene explains why the chemical is still used in several global industries and how runoff from manufacturing can threaten both water tables and surrounding communities. He shares how his team has spent years developing environmentally responsible alternatives designed to stop toxic contamination at its source. Their work represents a shift in thinking about environmental responsibility, where innovation and industry can work together to protect public health and the planet’s most vital resource. This conversation explores the importance of prevention, scientific innovation, and the responsibility industries share in safeguarding clean water for future generations. #CleanWaterAwareness, #EveryDropHasAStory, #WaterStewardship, #ProtectOurWater, #WaterForAll, #EnvironmentalAwareness, #WaterJustice, #Sustainability, #GlobalWater,
