30-min Webinar - Salty Drinking Water and Human Health

Winter salt and deicers are common water pollutants. Once extracted from the safety of the earth and connected with water, chlorides persist indefinitely with only one tsp of road salt needed to permanently pollute 5 gallons of freshwater. Salt Awareness Week features experts in hydrology, biogeochemistry, public health, and conservation that will discuss facets of this issue that impacts your community.

Day 3: Salty Drinking Water and Human Health: Assistant Professor of Medicine and Public Health at UW Milwaukee, Allison Couture will share the impacts of salty drinking water on public health.
