In this thought-provoking episode of "Something in the Water," host Elena Berg shifts the focus from bottled water to tap water, exploring the complex web of trust, taste, and toxicity. With the help of Dr. Jale Tosun from Heidelberg University, the discussion delves into the reasons behind public mistrust in tap water, influenced by past failures and current perceptions. The episode also contrasts American skepticism with European confidence in tap water, highlighting initiatives across Europe aimed at boosting public trust through legislative and informational campaigns. Through this exploration, Elena and Dr. Tosun unravel how social, environmental, and political factors shape our water choices and what can be done to restore confidence in public water systems.Episode Guest: Dr. Jale TosunMore information about Dr. Tosun hereBrowse Dr. Tosun’s publications on Research GateMore information about the episode and Something in the Water here.Episode Transcript  and more information on the Pine Forest Media WebsiteFollow Pine Forest Media on Instagram @pineforestmediaHosted by Elena BergWritten and produced by Elena Berg and Clark MarcheseAudio Editing by Clark MarcheseCover art by Sarah GlavanTheme Music by Josef Salvat Hosted on Acast.
