A quick rundown of two environmental news stories you might have missed last week, as heard live on WPKN's Green Line with Matt Cloutier on 11/09/19. Matt discusses a new study on how many people will have to relocate due to rising seas and then addresses a recently argued supreme case that highlights an issue plaguing the Clean Water Act since it was first written. Correction: at 1:31 Matt implies sea-levels will rise 6ft by 2100 instead of stating they could rise 6ft, which is among the upper estimates.
