#33: Unprepared and underwater – Why U.S. infrastructure can’t handle the next flood
Manage episode 499985994 series 3623009
In this episode of Tap’d In, hosts Jordan and Lana take on one of the most pressing—and overlooked—climate risks: flooding. Based on insights from Governing and the U.S. Water Alliance, they explore why floods remain the most common and costly natural disaster in the U.S., yet our aging water infrastructure is nowhere near ready. From outdated stormwater systems to underfunded resilience projects, Jordan and Lana discuss the high cost of inaction—and the economic, political, and human reasons we need to invest in smarter, stronger water systems now.
