Animal Law Podcast 114: The Case of the Not-So-Clean Water Act
Manage episode 452209402 series 3379817
Emily Miller of Food and Water Watch joins us to talk about Food and Water Watch v EPA, which involves the Clean Water Act and why, when it comes to one particular industry (guess which one!), it is so ineffective in guarding our water from being polluted with outright filth. Whether it comes to the failure to require factory farms to get permits or failure to ensure the factory farm permits that do exist are actually protective of water quality, the Clean Water Act and the Environmental Protection Agency, which is charged with enforcing it, are failing to live up to their names, and too often the courts are failing as well.
ABOUT OUR GUEST
Emily Miller is a Staff Attorney at the national advocacy organization Food & Water Watch. Emily primarily focuses on legal strategies to address factory farm air and water pollution harming frontline communities, the environment, and the climate. She is based in Colorado.
