In this episode, Shelby and Anton cover the disposal of toxic wastewater from fracking, elementary students’ environmental protest, and Smell MyCity! a new air pollution tracking app.
Segment 1: Radioactive materials can come from more than just nuclear power plants, they also come from fracking! Anton explains the problem of disposing toxic fracking waste and the harmful impact it has on the environment.
Segment 2: Third and fourth graders from Onaway School in Shaker Heights, OH protested the relocation of their beloved native pollinator garden. You’re never too young to make a difference in your community!
Segment 3: Does the air outside your home smell like chemicals? Do you notice unpleasant scents of chlorine or sulfur on your commute to work? If you smell toxins, you’re breathing in toxins! Report it with Smell MyCity!, a new app that allows users to report air pollution in their area.
* 17:34 Correction: The toxic odor that Anton mentions gives off a nail polish remover scent is methyl ethyl ketones. NOT methyl ethyl codone
* 21:05 Anton mentions the chemicals burned in East Palestine, OH. Those chemicals are vinyl chloride, butyl acrylate and isobutylene. Source below.
