What's Actually in Your Tap Water — And What You Can Do to Protect Your Family From It

Most people assume their tap water is safe because it comes from a regulated municipal system. Mary Trudeau is an environmental engineer and urban water specialist who knows exactly what that assumption misses. From contaminants and chemicals that slip through standard treatment to hidden bacteria and the cumulative effects of what travels through aging infrastructure before it reaches your glass — the full picture of what is in your tap water is something most households have never been given. What she shares with Lisa Urbanski about the specific contaminants most commonly found in tap water, how individuals can actively contribute to cleaner water systems rather than just filtering at the tap, and the practical steps that protect your family's health while supporting the broader water cycle will give you the most grounded and immediately actionable tap water safety framework you have encountered. You cannot see what is in your water. This episode shows you how to find out — and what to do about it.
