In this episode of Tap’d In, hosts Jordan and Lana explore a surprising headline: England – known for its grey skies and drizzle – is facing a serious water shortage. Drawing from a deep-dive by The Guardian, they unpack how aging infrastructure, privatized water systems, population growth, and climate change are draining reservoirs and aquifers across the country. From leaky pipes wasting billions of liters a day to outdated policies and high personal water use, Jordan and Lana examine the systemic failures and emerging solutions – like nature-based strategies and smarter building codes – that could help England escape this unexpected crisis.
