Team Common is still working on relaunching The Common as a longer weekly show. And we thank you so much for your patience. In the meantime, we want to share with you a project by WBUR’s own Barbara Moran and Science Quickly, a podcast from Scientific American.

The past two days we’ve been sharing Barb’s in-depth reporting on Cape Cod’s water, and the pollution that has been increasingly threatening its safety. We also heard about some of the costly solutions the community is considering to help prevent further wastewater pollution.

But what if there was a way to clean up the Cape’s waters without spending hundreds of millions of dollars? Some of you may have heard of it before on The Common…it’s called urine diversion, or “pee-cycling.” 

Greater Boston’s weekly podcast where news and culture meet.
