The safety of your water could be related to how your water utility is run Some water utilities are run by elected leaders, others aren't. Research shows utilities with elected managers tend to deliver more affordable drinking water.

How democratic is your water utility? It turns out that those with elected leaders perform better.

As dreams of 1.5°C melt away, net zero’s reckoning is overdue People’s inability to see past net zero shows it is no longer fit for purpose

"they fail to link climate action with things that matter to people: food poverty, fuel poverty, air pollution, inequality, job insecurity, lack of housing, unfordable or non-existent healthcare... they are constrained by only being able to offer pragmatic, ‘politically feasible’ centrism?"
