In this episode of Tap’d In, hosts Jordan and Lana tackle a lesser-known but widespread water crisis: the formation of cancer-linked disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water. Based on reporting from The Brockovich Report, the episode reveals how manure runoff from industrial livestock farms is a major contributor, affecting over 122 million Americans. When organic waste like manure reacts with disinfectants such as chlorine, it creates harmful chemical byproducts. Jordan and Lana unpack the overlap between high DBP levels and livestock-heavy states, and explore solutions—from smarter manure management to more advanced water treatment technologies.Article: https://www.thebrockovichreport.com/p/its-a-literal-shit-show-manure-isLinks: Tap: https://findtap.com/ PodSnacks (Podcast Summaries): https://www.podsnacks.org/
